I want to wish you success with every single PowerPoint presentation you'll ever give for the rest of
your life.
Here is one tip on how you can make each one a tiny little bit better.
When you're done delivering a PowerPoint and you're talking to more than two people someone will typically
come up with Oh good job today.
Most of us say oh thanks.
Thanks a lot appreciate it.
Don't just do that.
Instead say thanks.
Tell me what do you remember what stories what slides to remember.
Now I do that all the time.
And if someone says Wow T.J. You know you were just so compelling professional dynamic you're real proud.
Great.
That means I did a horrible job.
Now I know my speech was a complete flop.
My slides were no good and less my audience can tell me specific slides they remember and the messages
associated it didn't work.
So it's not enough to just test in advance on your own video.
It's not enough to test with other colleagues before the presentation.
Use every single PowerPoint presentation you give for the rest of your life as a mini focus group.
To make the next one even better.
It may be that the last minute you put in one slide one particular image you weren't even sure you wanted
to use it you kind of threw it into the last minute and it turns out everyone who came up to you afterwards
that's the slide they remember.
And that was the message you cared about.
And it worked.
Well now you know let's use that slide every time we're presenting on that message.
That's how you can continue to grow and grow and grow and your PowerPoint presentations will just get
better and better.
Good luck.
