Presentation #FAIL

Nancy Duarte shares with us this reenactment of a talk doomed to fail. Though the points numbered many, the following caught our attention.

"Mediocre icebreak joke"
"Poignant quote from unknown philosopher to kick off presentation in dramatic fashion"
"Juvenile slide transitions to spice things up"
"Unexpected technical difficulty"
"Going through a long list of facts one by one by one"


To see it from the audience's perspective gives us the empathic connection needed together to put together a presentation worthy of honor.
