9. This is a
compilation
of such
Weird moments

10. Once
upon a
time …

11. During College days I
was asked to present on
the topic…
Nuclear Family

12. And a bit of
laziness …
(that’s 80%  )
Due to shortage
of time …
(psst 20% of the reason)

13. This is what I delivered !
Nuclear Family:
Wikipedia:
A nuclear family is a family group consisting of a father and
mother and their children, who share living quarters. This can
be contrasted with an extended family.
What I said:
Nuclear Family! Hmmm (Thinking) Yes we don’t want the nuclear
family (got an idea). India and Pakistan should stay as brothers.
We don’t want war. We want peace. We don’t want to build a
“Nuclear” family ! All countries should say no to Nuclear!

14. And… these were the reactions!
Mom !!!
Haha Ha ha !!!

15. Lack
Of
preparation
and understanding
Can Doom
your presentation and
Kill your image!

16. Want another quick example?
Its hidden right here on SlideShare !
I am participating in the “Presentation
Horror Story” contest via this presentation
and when I checked the competition… I was
freaked !!

17. The Contest says..
Tell us your (or someone else’s) bad experience related to presentations.
For example, the time you fell off the stage while giving a presentation, or
the projector refused to work…
And the presentations actually talk about spooky Horror stories

18. Lack
Of
preparation
and understanding
Can Doom
your presentation and
Kill your image!

19. And the last one…
PsstYou might blast laughing at this one
At a recent startup event an MBA grad was asked to present his business
plan in front of a panel of angel investors.While everything was going
well, he noticed a line in his presentation…

20. Goof up #1
The last slide has a picture of his
partner which says…
John Doe – A master in
cummunication…
Cummunication? Really ? What does
Cum-munication really mean?

21. Goof up #2
The partner notices this and (forgetting that there’s a mike tucked in
his collar) says What the F***… Later bangs his head on why did he
say that

22. Goof up #3
The presentation ends
with stupid clip arts
and a LOUD noise of
claps….
… These sounds were added hoping everybody will clap along with the ppt.

23. How #Dumb

24. Cliparts
&
Sounds
Are so

25. You need to
Deliver
an
Impact!
But I used a clipart here. Oops I goofed up  again..

26. What I mean is…
Deliver
Impact!

27. So Remember…
Don’t add Frills
Add Simplicity.
Don’t deliver Presentation
Deliver an Experience.
Its not about you
Its about your Audience.

28. Follow these simple rules
and you will be a Master
Presenter.
AMEN!

29. There’s a last secret…
And the secret is called Good Karma
