Description

Giving great business presentations that stand out can mean the difference between getting and losing out on an important promotion, a critical client deal, or a grant. To start creating PowerPoint presentations that showcase your ideas in the best light possible, you’ll need more than attractive templates; you'll need to leverage PowerPoint's full range of tools and features. This is where this PowerPoint book comes in, leading you through the steps that will help you plan, create, and deliver more impactful and professional-looking presentations. The book is designed in a way to take you through planning your content efficiently and confidently preparing PowerPoint masters. After you’ve gotten to grips with the basics, you’ll find out how to create visually appealing content using the application’s lesser known, more advanced features, including useful third-party add-ins. The concluding chapters will equip you with PowerPoint’s advanced delivery tools, which will enable you to deliver memorable presentations. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to confidently choose processes to create and deliver impactful presentations more efficiently.

Who is this book for?

If you are a business professional looking for best practices for presentations and are interested in the features PowerPoint has to offer to help you create and deliver impactful presentations, this book is for you. No formal presentation design knowledge is needed, but you do need to know PowerPoint’s basic tools and functions such as starting and saving files, adding, copying, pasting, or moving slides. A sound understanding of cloud storage and the use of Office 365 is also needed.

What you will learn

  • Plan your PowerPoint presentation content and know your audience
  • Prepare PowerPoint masters to speed up the development process and maintain consistency
  • Add and modify visual and multimedia elements
  • Use transitions and animations efficiently
  • Build flexibility and interactivity into your presentations

What's amazing about this book -- and hard to find -- is that the author gives you technical details, exactly how to do something in PowerPoint -- along with best practices. Because you can know how to create an animation but still build an awful slide that doesn't communicate clearly and is even distracting from the points you're trying to communicate. This book will really get you where you want to go, which is to inspire change in your audience.

The book is a detailed manual on Microsoft PowerPoint. The book explores the multiple facets of PowerPoint in a constructive manner. There is a larger focus on covering as many important points as possible and I feel that the author has done a commendable job here.
