I try to steer them into good presentation practices, and I would love to show them this video. I also require them to produce premissions for all the images they use, so I'm asking for your permission to show your video in class. I think it would get the point across to them effectively.

Just one client presentation, and then it was me who created the slides. Thankfully, Mark, I’ve not had much need for PowerPoint since I first published this post.

Interesting to say the least. I've been a trainer/coach for several years now and was told catagorically recently that 'it's not proper training unless a PowerPoint presentation is used...' By used there is the insistance that every bit of the trainer's delivery be in a handout and that this is then replicated on the slides! Nothing new it seems but oh so frustrating when there is a complete lack of understanding by those with the power when it comes to effective delivery. aaaarrrrgh!!!! Phew, now I've ranted I feel better - thanks. Another one who stumbled across this.. although it appears not to have had a comment for a while.
