Written specifically for busy executives, managers, and other professionals, Effective Executive’s Guide to PowerPoint 2000 walks you through the seven steps of creating high-value, high-impact presentations:

• Step 1: Learn the Logic. Start here with an overview of what PowerPoint is and how it helps you make better presentations.
• Step 2: Outline Your Content. Create a textual list, or outline, of the messages and points you want to share.
• Step 3: Add Objects. Use tables, charts, and pictures to augment the information in your outline.
• Step 4: Design Your Look. Move past the substance of your presentation and address its appearance and “look” to create a professional presentation.
• Step 5: Add Special Effects. Use transitions, animation, sound, and video to enhance your presentation’s impact.
• Step 6: Prepare Your Presentation. Prepare by creating speaker’s notes, rehearsing, producing any handouts, and tailoring your presentation’s slides for the presentation method.
• Step 7: Deliver Your Presentation. Deliver a successful, memorable presentation to your audience by comfortably using the appropriate PowerPoint tools.

More than just a book about Microsoft PowerPoint 2000, Effective Executive’s Guide to PowerPoint 2000 explains how to make effective, compelling presentations that audiences understand and remember.
