They’ll just read the slide rather than listening to what you have to say. Of course, if this is fine then you should have just sent them the information so they could read it themselves. Presentations should just have animations on by default.

As the video suggests the reason why people have so many words on their slides is because they have not rehearsed what they want to say.

I always suggest that people rehearse their presentations four times, one of which should be in front of a live audience.

I’m basically a non-Luddite working in a Luddite filled office and am therefore subjected to a depressing number of sadly lackluster Powerpoint presentations — I’ve forwarded your tips to my co-workers and am hoping for the best.
