To design a good sales or corporate presentation you must start with a clear plan and use clear messages. The problem is most presenters overcook it and clutter up their slides with stuff that obscures rather than clarifies the presentation.
Over many years of giving presentations I've always felt that my visual aids lacked punch and were less than memorable. If only I'd had the benefit of the guidance these books offer. Similarly, I wish that some of the speakers I've seen had read at least one of these, maybe then their visuals would have been less boring and less like eye-candy.
In his globally acclaimed, top-selling book Presentation Zen: Simple Ideas on Presentation Design and Delivery (over 100,000 copies sold and translated into 17 languages) presentation guru Garr Reynolds gave readers the blueprint for planning, assembling, and delivering successful presentations.
With his latest work, Presentation Zen Design: Simple Design Principles and Techniques to Enhance Your Presentations Reynolds takes us further still into the design world and demonstrates how we can easily use tried and true design principles in presentation layouts.
A leading authority on presentation design and delivery and sought-after speaker and consultant, Garr Reynolds is a writer, designer, musician, and long-time student of the zen arts, and currently Associate Professor of Management at Kansai Gaidai University in Japan and Director of Design Matters Japan.
It doesn't matter which corporate or sales presentation softwre you use, whether you are using PowerPoint, Keynote's Presenter Dashboard or Adobe's Ovation these books will make your slides so much more effective. If you are giving a presentation using visuals in the near future and you aren't a trained designer, you'll do so much better if you take this information on board.
