What you'll learn

Why Most Slides Confuse, Not Clarify

Busy slides = lost audience. Learn why more detail often leads to less impact.

8 Great Mistakes That Wreck Your Deck

From too much text to no transitions, you’ll learn what not to do and what to do instead.

How to Use AI to Create and Critique

AI can be your first draft partner and feedback coach. Learn prompts to generate, review, and improve your slides.

Why this topic matters

Most presentations by technical experts fail before the speaker begins— because the slides are already working against them. Slides should amplify your message, not drown it. When they’re built like a story, they do just that. Great slides make complex ideas memorable, messages clear, and decisions easier. This session shows you how.
