There’s nothing worse than a presentation, seminar or discussion showing so much promise and yet, then being ruined by a presenter using Powerpoint.

Yet we still see it all the time. The long boring slides of way too many words. Too many graphs. And it’s not just the academic research papers at a sports science conference that still think this is a good way to present.

Lets look behind the scenes of what makes a great presentation. Whether you’re presenting to a small group of colleagues, a local primary health network, a corporate group or a large conference. The principles for presentation success are still relevant and so many allied health professionals still fail to capitalise on what works and what is needed.
