Do You Present with Pizzazz!?

Here are some surefire ways to add some punch and pizzazz to your Power Points (courtesy of a very savvy PMBA student)!  
  • Treat your Power Point as if you are getting dressed for a party. What do you want to be – Classy? Cool? Nerdy?
  • Choose colors carefully with no more than three colors in your theme.  Keep to those same colors with your pie charts and graphs.
  • Use good quality, high resolution pictures & use pictures with people to create a powerful connection.
  • Only incorporate three points per slide (McKinsey's Rule of Three).
  • Weave a story with your slides!
Sprinkle some of these tips into what you already know to really wow your audience, particularly her first and last nuggets of wisdom - simple but brilliant!
