Designing a SlideShare world contest

(winning?) presentation

I use slides a lot in my job

And I dislike being

bored during a

presentation

So, I tried to improve my presentations

But…

Still got work to do…

Then, I discovered a new world

And I became addicted to

As I tried to embrace a new way of

presenting

I heard of SlideShare world contest

I was kind of interested in it

And I began to think:

How could I make

a good challenging

presentation?

1st, know your “enemy”…

And I saw…

… That there were (very) good entries!

(no, I won’t give any name! )

How could I find a good (great!)

idea to stand out?

Easy: take a part of your life!

A friend sent me a jokes presentation that can

(must?) be redesigned

Great!

But…

What is the message to give?

Ok, next!

Why not talking about my “new world”?

Great!

But…

There’s already:

Nancy

Garr

Cliff

Andy

What is my added-value to the message?

Ok, next!

Let’s talk about the last book I’ve read

It’s a great book about…

…Making a message

stick in minds

Great!

But…

Still reading it!

Next!

And that’s when

it appears…

The idea…

… Telling the story you’re

currently reading!

Great!

… because this is a story about

building a (good?) presentation

… and stories are

the best way to

engage people!

Ok! let’s conclude then.

A presentation has a message

The presenter adds value

A story is the best way to engage

people about the message

(even if highly technical!)

By the way, let’s check those

points for this presentation

The 3 points you must not forget

when making a presentation

1 Message:

2 Added value:

Telling those 3 points through a

concrete story

3 Story:

The story told in this presentation

should sound familiar and engage you

So, always remember the

3 “not-to-forget” things
