How to Present Slides
Begin with a blank slide
Show slides only while you are
talking to them
Typically 2 minutes per slide, can be much longer with technical
slides
Direct audience to slide using
hand gestures
Walk audience
through each slide. Use
natural reading
patterns (left to right, top
down)
With complex slides, give audience time to absorb before
speaking

Don’t do it!
• Don’t try to kill 2 birds with one stone. • What’s the stone? • The PowerPoint slides! • Don’t try to use them to over-document
everything in lieu of a support document. • No “in lieu” allowed!!

It’s called PowerPoint for a reason!
• Less is more • Not an effective way
to present lots of information
• Is an effective way to show relationships between information
• Slides reinforce your points!

“The presenter read the slides”
• Most technical people focus on providing as much detail as possible because they believe that the purpose of a presentation is to provide as much technical information as they can for the audience.
• “The facts and just the facts” is what the presentation should be all about and it is the presenter’s role to deliver those facts. In some ways a technical presenter apologizes up front for getting in the way of the information and actively tries to avoid saying something that is not on the slides.
• Clearly this slide must have these words here because they are important . The presentation creator, even if it is the presenter’s creation is inviting the presenter to “read this slide”. If this is perceived as a problem by the audience let’s place the blame on the presentation creation process!
“The facts and just the facts”

• Speaker just read the slides to us • The text was so small I couldn’t read it
• The visuals had full sentences instead of bullet points and that is just not right for a presentation
• The slides were hard to see because of poor color choice
• Moving/flying text or graphics was distracting
• The use of sound was annoying • The diagrams or charts were overly
complex
