Your Challenge

You have worked for weeks, maybe even months collecting essential data, doing extensive analysis, and synthesizing valuable information – and you have 30 minutes to convey vital information.  What do you include, what do you leave out?   Often presenters suffer from TMI syndrome – Too Much Information.  Every fact, every insight seems important; but what is essential?  What is indispensable?  What do you want your audience to never forget?  If you are creating the presentation for someone else to deliver, how do you ensure you include what is critical to the presenter?  Finally, how can you create interesting presentations about even the most technical information? 

Do I Need This Workshop?
