Rethinking PowerPoint: Designing & Delivering Presentations That Engage The Mind

Rethinking PowerPoint describes how to create and deliver compelling presentations that make the content stick, using techniques drawn from psychology, film, and design..

In 2010 speaker & filmmaker Ron Galloway became frustrated with his own presentation design and delivery. He spent 18 months interviewing presentation experts such as Nancy Duarte (slide:ology), Peter Norvig (head of research at Google), Dan Roam (The Back Of The Napkin), Carmine Gallo (Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs) and many others, including experts from Penn State led by Michael Alley.

What emerged from his research was a set of standards for presentations that engage the brain, making the words and visuals work together rather than separately. Presentation delivery techniques were also researched, revealing ways to defeat stage fright, manage energy on stage, and lead the audience through a story that compels them and makes your message stick.
