2 Day Power Design For Presentation Workshop

Be Amazed at what PowerPoint can offer you to present with Style and Confidence!
 
Dear fellow Presenters,

How many of you are expected to deliver a presentation using PowerPoint at work? If yes, doesn't it make perfect sense to deliver an effective and impactful presentation? Otherwise, it'll simply be a waste of time and resources for both the presenter and the audience.

The sad truth is many presenters fail to use PowerPoint well, especially to their advantage. Most presenters have yet to fully explore what PowerPoint can offer them to deliver their speech with a punch. While they may be veterans in their areas of expertise, they can be clueless in knowing the right elements that make a presentation click. It is for this purpose that our Power Design For Presentation workshop is created

Our workshop has been transforming the way presenters create their slides for the past five years. To date, more than 700 people have attended from our Power Design for Presentation workshop. Our participants come from a myriad of backgrounds such as IBM, Shell Petroleum, Mindef, PSA, CPF, AIA, NTUC, NTU and they have given us encouraging and positive feedback about our workshop.

We are passionate in helping presenters succeed in creating slides that are engaging. In this age and time whereby everything and everyone seem to be shouting for attention, there is a pressing need for one's presentation to make a lasting impression.

As you know, the new buzzword for every organization now is "PRODUCTIVITY". Having an impactful presentation will increase the effective communication and thereby translates to the organization being more productive. Being able to know exactly what makes up a good presentation will shorten the time needed to prepare the slides and thereby helping you to be more productive.

This is what Gabriel Chan, an AIA trainer, has to say after attending our workshop: "This is an excellent program to improve the aesthetics and impact of PowerPoint without making it looks cheap or amateurish. I'm amazed at how my skills improved by almost 300%"

 
 
 
 
Course Outline
 
Day 1

  • Grid
Have you ever struggled to decide where to place your text boxes and pictures? Ever realized your slides look rather messy? Through this study of using a grid system, you will find that deciding your layout is actually fun and easy.

  • Type
Do you know that there are certain texts that work for a presentation? Have you ever wondered what the most appropriate size for your text is? Using the incorrect text type and size will cause the audience to be frustrated with your presentation. This section will address these problems and more.

  • Colors
Colors are known to inject life to our presentations. Yet too often, we shy away from it, choosing instead to use dull and conservative colors. Do you know that it can be taught systematically and be applied to your slides effectively? Do you know the difference between the "analogous" and the "complimentary" color scheme? This section has been rated the best value for this workshop. Find out why as we explore the wonderful world of colors.

  • Hierarchy
Have you ever seen a slide that has the wrong emphasis? Do you know the techniques to direct the attention of your audience? In this section, you will see how contrast plays a big part in achieving this and how to eliminate "noise" from your slides.

  • Slide Master
Have you ever encountered the problem of being unable to integrate a background from another PowerPoint file? Do you know that you can prepare numerous templates for your slides and change them accordingly at the click of a button? This section will show you how to do it and give you more amazing possibilities for your slides. ys a big part in achieving this and how to eliminate "noise" from your slides.

Day 2

  • Creating and designing your own master template & corporate blueprint
Have you noticed the same worn-out PowerPoint templates being used over and over again as you sit through presentations after presentations? Or worse still, have you been using the same templates as your competitors? Now you can break away from the pack and make your audience sit up and pay attention to your slides with your own unique PowerPoint templates. Through this session, we'll show you the techniques and you'll discover some new possibilities to create templates that express the distinct corporate identity of your organization.

  • Beyond bullet-points & clipart
Have you been filling your slides with boring bullet-points and cliched clipart? Your slides will no longer have the same old run-of-the-mill feel as you learn how to pack your points with impressive diagrams which guarantee to give your audience a breath of fresh air.

  • Finding your flow
Do you struggle to present your four main points that contain five other sub-points within your presentation? Can your audience follow the flow of your message? Or do they get lost in an ocean of information and switch off soon after you have started? We will share with you how you can create a presentation that is clear and easy to follow by using advanced animation and proper sequencing.

  • Complex diagrams made easy
Have you encounter problems with complex diagrams or flowcharts? Very often when presented on PowerPoint slides, these diagrams get really small on the screen and incomprehensible to the audience. Is there a way out? Through this session, you will discover an easy technique to present these complex diagrams and make your audience see your point.

  • Advanced charting techniques
Do you overwhelm your audience with bar and pie charts that are overloaded with stats? Ever wondered how you can present one segment of the chart at a time? We will guide you through some unique ways to work around the problem and give your charts a 3D look at the same time.
