Keen to Wean Yourself off Slides When Presenting?

Keen to wean yourself off-over reliance on slides when #presenting?

Here's a simple tip:

If your first step when preparing a slide presentation is to open up Powerpoint...

STOP IT!

Prepare your slides as LATE in the preparation process as possible.

That way, you'll get clear on the overall flow / story / audience journey FIRST.

If you get too bogged down in slide development too early, you'll end up being taken hostage by them.

And that's not nice - for you or your audience.

The school is at the start of an ambitious and exciting journey. You have helped us set the standard for the remainder of the year and further ahead. I hope you will return to the school in the future and inspire subsequent cohorts of MPP students.
