Move your presentations beyond bullet points

Cliff Atkinson is the author of Beyond Bullet Points, the single most useful book about PowerPoint and presentations I have ever read. Cliff is leading a free webinar (registration required) to introduce his approach to the art of presenting this Wednesday, May 10. I heartily recommend you attend the webinar and that you check out Cliff’s insanely successful book. It will revolutionize the way you think about building presentations.

Here is the description of the webinar:

Are your audiences getting tired of the same old bullet point approach? Ready to try something new? Then join author Cliff Atkinson and Work Essentials for an interactive webcast that will teach you how to unlock the power of stories in your PowerPoint presentations. Whether you give your own presentations or create them for others, you’ll learn how to engage an audience and boil down complicated ideas to top-level points. Then you’ll learn how to design a powerful storyboard that illustrates your story and focuses attention on the speaker instead of the slides. This webcast is presented in association with the International Association of Administrative Professionals (IAAP), the world’s largest association for administrative support staff. IAAP provides research, publications, seminars, conferences and other resources to 40,000 members and affiliates worldwide. 

Marc Orchant has been building, testing, and sometimes breaking hardware and software for 25 years. See his full profile and disclosure of his industry affiliations.
