The document discusses best practices for creating effective presentations. It recommends developing the key points and logical flow on paper before creating the PowerPoint. Presentations should have a clear focal point and avoid too many elements. Stories, especially personal ones, are effective ways to illustrate points. The best presentations are memorable rather than perfunctory. Knowing the material well makes presenters less nervous since they fear what they don't know.

PowerPoint before you have your
key points and logical flow worked
out on paper is like a movie
director hiring actors and starting
to film before there is a script in
hand.
