Here are some tips for using process diagrams effectively in presentations:- Keep them simple. Don't include too many steps or details that aren't essential.- Use visual cues like arrows, numbers, or icons to clearly show the sequence and flow. - Add brief explanatory text or labels to each step to clarify what's happening.- Consider animating the diagram to "walk through" the process step-by-step if it's complex.- Make sure it's large and clear enough for all viewers to see and understand from their seats. - Relate the process back to your overall message or key points. Don't just include it for its own sake.- Test it out
There is not excuse for uninteresting, poorly executed and downright bad presentations. In my mind this is simply unacceptable, and something that needs to be rectified.
To that end I taught a 1-Day workshop, this is the second iteration of the workshop, in which I presented this deck along with a series of group exercises.
Please feel free to download and share this as needed. Together we can put an end to this scourge of bad presentations. :-)
Cheers
