No problem. Communication is underrated in it's importance, you can have brilliant findings but if you suck at communicating them, what good are they?

I don't have any resources for powerpoints at my fingertips, but here are some principles that have worked well in my experience:

  1. Think about the scope, flow and overall message before you start making slides. Questions are asked sequentially, so try to be pre-emptive. Here's my questions as an audience member and the slides which would be related in brackets:
    1. Who are you? [about]
    2. Why are we meeting today? [background, purpose, agenda, what you hope they get out of it]
      1. ...your presentation...
    3. What do we do now? [key findings, next steps/actionable insights, considerations]
    4. I have some other questions [questions and comments]
    5. Thank you [always, always thank people for the opportunity and time to speak to them]
  2. Stylistically:
    1. keep it simple. Lots of white space, the least amount of text you can get away with. The powerpoint is for emphasis, it is not a crutch. YOU are the presentation, not powerpoint.
    2. Be consistent with colors. Find a color palette and stick with it. Avoid using a default word color palette. Your company likely has a branding guide published by Marketing/Communications that will have this information along with logos and other guidelines. Use it.
    3. Further to point #1, if you find yourself typing up paragraphs on a slide, you've gone way too far. Put it in the notes, distribute it to the audience afterwards. No one is reading your slides while you are presenting, also it's lazy and cheap.

      ​

      One last point in general--think like a pyramid. Don't start right at the tiniest details, always start big picture and work your way down. People need to understand the context before they'll interpret the content, if you go too fast, I find people tend to get confused and overwhelmed which will defeat your entire purpose.

      I haven't personally read it, but I've heard really good things about it. Hopefully this helps!
