ÂTRANSCRIPT
INSTINCTIVE A WORKSHOP ON CREATING slides that get the job done
‘Why did he put that image there?’ ‘What exactly am I supposed to look at?’ ‘Which row is she talking about?’ ‘I wish he’d stop yapping, I can’t hear myself read!’ How many times have you had to sit through a presentation where the slides are so poorly designed that they actually take your attention away from the presenter? Designing effective slides is a must-have skill for anyone whose job involves presenting to internal audiences or external stakeholders – clients and customers. In this workshop participants will learn the basics of ‘creating slides that get the job done’. They will also learn how to redesign existing slides for maximum impact. Later, when they get back to work, they will instinctively ‘see’ which of their slides need to be reworked and know exactly how to do it themselves.
