design them instead.<\/p>\n
I find that I’m continually being asked by people for advice on how to write their presentations and almost inevitably these people are wedded to the million-words-per-slide-in-lots-of-bullet-points school. It’s got to the point where I can almost tell who’s going to be of this school of thought when they use the words “write a presentation”.<\/p>\n
The very words imply something in people’s head about presentations being wordy.<\/p>\n
Good presentations, of course, do contain words – they contain as many words as necessary (but no more!) but I’d like to suggest a wholy different way of thinking about getting your presentation together. Don’t think about writing it at all – think about designing it.<\/p>\n
That way you’re more likely to think visually – images and so on – rather than a gazillion words.<\/p>\n
It’s a whole different mindset!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
