Presentation Skills 2: Designing effective visuals

The key to visuals is developing complementary impact. Three things can be achieved: 1) fast-track comprehension, 2) trigger emotion, 3) create memories. This workshop details how. Specifically, we’ll review examples and review key PowerPoint features.

Learning outcomes include:
1. Understanding how to trigger emotion and increase memory with visuals
2. Strategies for using visuals to increase comprehension including training in specific PowerPoint functionality (morphing and zoom)
