Message from the instructor:

"I am going to teach you how to deliver an effective and memorable presentation while using PowerPoint slides. Remember, any fool can stand up and read off of slides and put everyone in the room to sleep. Then Pat himself on the back that he did a professional job and didn’t make any mistakes and covered all the material. This is shortsighted thinking.

I’m going to teach you the following:

How to start every PowerPoint presentation in a compelling engaging way.

How to not rely on the PowerPoint presentation as your notes or Teleprompter.

A 100% Reliable means of testing The effectiveness of everyone of your PowerPoint slides before showing it to your real audience.

The fastest and easiest way of rehearsing every PowerPoint presentation.

A full proof way to completely eliminate all nervousness before giving a PowerPoint presentation.

The ultimate way of testing the effectiveness of your entire PowerPoint presentation before and after every Delivery." TJ Walker
