How to Prevent PowerPoint Overload

Speaker:  Cliff Atkinson, Author & Speaker, Sociable Media
 Seminar Overview: Aligning your multimedia message with the way the mind works.
 When the lights go down and a presenter starts reading bullet points from a slide, do you ever feel bored, frustrated, or sleepy? If so, there's research that indicates that it's probably not your fault.  It turns out that the conventional bullet-point approach can quickly overload the ability of the human mind to understand information. But now there's a better way.  By understanding the basic research that explains how the mind works, you can radically transform your PowerPoint approach to produce simpler and clearer communications.  By the end of the seminar, you'll have the concepts and tools you need to start presenting more clearly and effectively!

In this seminar you will learn how to:
  • Respect the limitations of short-term memory
  • Use Notes Page view to balance visual and verbal elements
  • Use visual cues to reinforce for both you and the audience the most important points
