The book goes well beyond the expected, offering advice and strategies for: - influencing any type of audience - structuring your presentation for maximum impact - selecting visuals that inform and persuade - delivering your presentation with panache The book's illustrations are stunning examples of Mills' concept of using visuals to powerfully complement, not compete with, your delivery. The included CD is packed with sample presentations, templates and graphics. In sum, with Power Points! you'll not only learn how to use PowerPoint more effectively but how to plan, compose and deliver more informative, inspiring and influential presentations. I highly recommend it!

great value

The missing link.Putting to one side the technical aspects of Powerpoint this book cuts straight to the chase on how to make your presentation compelling. If like me you use Powerpoint regularly you will be familiar with the "here we go again" expression. This is a hands on what to do and why.The cd alone with its great templates icons etc is worth the price. If your presentations don't improve it's not the books fault :-)
