  • Limit yourself to 10 words per slide. If you break that, your slide is getting too wordy.
  • Along with that, bring the presentation back to you. What is displayed up on the screen should just be a focal point that your audience can refer back to WHILE you are talking, to continually reinforce whatever point you're trying to make/convey at the moment.
  • Do not add fluff. Fluff is for high school, where your job is to meet some presentation requirement. The only requirement of your presentation now is to convince your audience of something. The faster you can do that, the more memorable it will be.
  • Use graphics, but don't go overboard, and keep them tasteful. I love using the Flat Icon site to just have some representative image that supports whatever 10 words or less I have on the screen. Occasionally, I'll use only the image and some title.
  • Use backgrounds. The stock crap with PowerPoint is mostly garbage. You can go do a Google search and just find some really nice stuff. Just make sure it's not too busy.
  • Be mindful of corporate branding. If your company is big enough to have a marketing department, they probably have some content that you can use (they might even have a standard slide deck template).
  • Consider doing a recorded video version of your presentation as well, hosting it somewhere (be mindful of security/confidential information, obviously when choosing a host), and then putting a bit.ly link to it at the end of your presentation. Sometimes "the suits" have a lot of stuff they're juggling, and it's hard not to reply to emails and Slack messages during meetings. If they found something they liked but missed it, that could give them a chance to go back.

    Good luck!

    EDIT: I remembered a good book, "Beyond Bullet Points" by Cliff Atkinson that might have some good tips or ideas for you.
