Think Outside the Slide™ with Dave Paradi, MBA
Monday, November 14, 2005 2:00-5:00 pm Gelber Conference Centre, Montreal

If you want to dramatically increase the impact of your PowerPoint presentations, you need a different approach. The old approach of producing "cool looking" slides and reading them word for word doesn't work any more. You need to Think Outside the Slide™. Cut the time it takes to create audience focused high impact presentations. Get the results you want in less time than it takes you now.

"Just a note to thank you for the excellent presentation on PowerPoint you delivered. The many tips you described led me to reformat all the slides in my seminar. I consider myself very adept at PowerPoint, however, the ideas you introduced have significantly enhanced my slides. Great job!" - Bryan Walton, CentreLine Publications, Toronto, ON (CAPS Member)
