Presenting Slides

Presenting SlidesIf everything a speaker is going to say is already written up on a slide, the audience will read the slide and ignore the presenter. No amount of presentation skills training will get around the fact that the slides are undermining the audience. Effective slides use animations to control the flow of information.

This section shows how presenters can effectively time the delivery of their presentation, pacing the speed at which information is presented for maximum impact.
