PowerPoint for Business in 60 Minutes   Course Description   Copyright Ross Maynard 2021   Course Description Welcome to PowerPoint for Business in 60 Minutes.   Microsoft PowerPoint has been around for nearly 35 years, and I am sure you are familiar with it, and have experienced many PowerPoint presentations – some good; many extremely tedious! Creating a business presentation in PowerPoint presents a number of challenges and there is a danger of “death by PowerPoint”. I recently attended a meeting which was supposed to be a planning discussion but which the person leading the meeting insisted on introducing with a PowerPoint presentation of 60 slides – mostly bullet points! We were hardly in the mood for action planning after that assault on our senses.  PowerPoint is good for presenting business results or for a training course, but you need to plan your slideshow carefully to avoid bullet-point boredom and to keep your audience engaged and interested. And that is the purpose of this course – to teach you PowerPoint techniques which you may not be familiar with, and which will help you improve the impact of your business presentations.   Less is more in a slide show so it is important to use techniques and effects which will help engage your audience and draw their attention to the points that matter.  In “PowerPoint for Business in 60 Minutes”, I cover six key topics that will help you produce more impactful business presentations: The best slide transitions and animations for business presentations The morph transition to make the narration of an agenda, or similar list, or a team photograph extremely slick and professional The Zoom effect to create a summary slide with hyperlinks to zoom into the section that you or your audience choose How to animate charts to highlight the key points you want to bring out How to embed Excel tables with slicers into PowerPoint, and why PowerPoint is not developed enough to make this useful for a business presentation How to turn your PowerPoint presentation into a video. This is the technique I am most often asked how to do.   This is not a full “PowerPoint from scratch” course: it assumes familiarity of Microsoft’s ubiquitous programme. Instead, the course takes only 1 hour of your time to focus on key techniques that can help you improve the impact of the presentations you create.   I hope you enjoy the course.     Key Learning Points  On completion of the course, delegates will be able to: Identify the most useful slide transitions and animations for business presentations Use the morph transition to draw the audience’s attention Create a “zoom” summary slide to jump to user-selected sections of slides Animate charts to highlight key points Embed a Microsoft Excel table in a PowerPoint slide Create a video with commentary of their PowerPoint presentation     Curriculum Lesson 1: Transitions and Animations Lesson 2: The Morph Transition Lesson 3: Zoom Lesson 4: Animating Charts Lesson 5: Excel Tables and Slicers in PowerPoint (or Not!) Lesson 6: Making a PowerPoint Video     Pre-Course Requirements There are no pre-course requirements     Additional Resources None     Course Tutor Your tutor is Ross Maynard. Ross is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants in the UK and has 30 years’ experience as a process improvement consultant specialising in business processes and organisation development. Ross is also a professional author of online training courses. Ross lives in Scotland with his wife, daughter and Cocker Spaniel     Questions What slide effect allows you to give the illusion of moving around a larger “page”? The Wipe transition. The Dissolve transition. The Push transition. The Fly-In animation   What does “Zoom” in PowerPoint allow you to do? Zoom creates the illusion of “zooming in” on a particular part of a slide Zoom creates a summary slide with hyperlinks to the individual slides or sections contained in the summary Zoom creates a smooth object animation from one slide to another to animate, for example, an agenda or timeline Zoom is used to highlight areas of a chart or graphic to draw the audience’s attention   What is the main problem with embedding a Microsoft Excel table with slicers into PowerPoint? The slicers do not work, and the table cannot be manipulated, in presentation mode in PowerPoint The table cannot be opened or manipulated in PowerPoint slide view Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint are incompatible with each other The file size created is too large for most business PCs to handle   When seeking to create an MP4 video file from a PowerPoint presentation, why is it advisable to record the commentary separately? PowerPoint’s built-in recording facility is unreliable and frequently crashes It’s much quicker to record the audio separately and then insert it into PowerPoint and save as a video file Separate video editing software needs to be used to improve the video’s look and sound where the audio is recorded directly in PowerPoint It removes the stress of commentating “live” on the presentation while recording it, and allows any mistakes and errors to be cut out

An interactive workshop with Karen Hale. Learn how to gain the confidence, skills and techniques to speak up so you can be heard. "There are two types of speakers: Those who get nervous and those who are liars." - Mark Twain Is this you? Promotions not applied for, jobs roles not tried for, networking events not attended? Parties avoided, family ceremonies not spoken at, too much left unsaid? Do you have excellent ideas that get lost in time because you are fearful of voicing them. Have you missed opportunities because it involves showing up? Do you stay silent in meetings? Do you have a brilliant business idea that isn’t being pursued because you know it will involve some kind of networking or public speaking? If the answer to any/most of these is YES, then read on... This workshop is strange by its nature. Why would someone who disliked public speaking, go to a place where they would speak in public? This is why.... Because Karen has analysed what makes a good communicator when speaking informally to people; she has taken those aspects and developed a group of exercises that allows you to use these exact techniques when speaking at networking events and in public. Added to that, Karen provides a smorgasbord of methods on how to control nerves to ensure you communicate at your authentic best. Please note: everybody in the room will be there for the same reason as you! You will be supported and encouraged and will learn how to turn fear into empowerment! About Karen: An empowerment and public speaking coach with over 30 years experience in coaching and advising individuals and business leaders from a diverse range of sectors on effective communication skills. It takes a second to form a first impression about a person. Your body language, clothes, speech and personal presence convey messages about your background, skills and expertise. Karen works with her clients to ensure they make that first impression powerful and authentic so they get remembered for the right reasons. By creating a confident and authentic presence you increase your visibility and your credibility. “Karen is a truly special individual. She made me feel totally at ease and was able to help me stand and speak confidently for the first time and she did that all with huge warmth and a lot of humour.” She fulfils her greatest passion on a daily basis, helping people present themselves to the outside world in the very best way. She has enabled hundreds of people to move on in their life and careers and build their growth, confidence and image.

She coaches senior individuals and consults to leading global banks, private banks and family offices, advising business leaders and their teams. She is Central School of Speech and Drama trained. Kind words about Karen... I have had the absolute pleasure of working with Karen numerous times over the past 16 years to assist me in my various corporate roles. Karen has always been the person I have turned to first and foremost when I have needed help with my personal brand, presence and communication, helping me develop confidence in public speaking and showing up in front of the camera. A HUGE thank you for Monday – you were wonderful. The feedback we have had has been unbelievable – I can honestly say in all my years in this industry I have never heard such positive comments on every aspect. Karen has an incredible gift of making you feel completely at ease and is able to bring the best out of a person with ease. She is friendly, approachable and warm and I now refer Karen to everybody I know who needs assistance with any type of public speaking, communication and confidence requirement. The results speak for themselves. Highly recommend!
