2-20. Tips For Building a Good Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation
When you build your presentation think about the following tips:
- Title each screen.
- Use larger fonts and perhaps different style/colors (not light) for titles.
- Don’t use too many colors/fonts.
- Stick to one font with different sizes and styles (Bold, Italics).
- All cards (Screens) must be simple, stand-alone.
- No more than six bullet points per slide (24 pitch for bullets).
- Use graphics symbols where possible to show ideas.
- Use pie charts for comparison of components.
- Use line charts to show trends.
- Use bar charts to do both.
- Order points by order of importance – most important first.
- For impact – combine sound, image, and motion (multi-media).
- Use lots of white space on the screen.
- Try it out before, e.g. Rehearse – is monitor or screen big enough?
- Add any missing information.

LEADS
BUILD TRUST
6-51. Leaders who coach, counsel, and mentor subordinates establish close relationships that foster trust. These relationships built on trust enable leaders to empower subordinates, encourage initiative, reinforce accountability, and allow for open communication. Further, these relationships establish predictability and cohesion within the team.
6-52. Failure to cultivate a climate of trust or a willingness to tolerate discrimination or harassment on any basis erodes unit cohesion and breaks the trust subordinates have for their leaders. Unethical behavior, favoritism, personal biases, and poor communication skills erode trust. Broken trust often creates suspicion, doubt, and distrust. Restoring broken trust is not a simple process – it requires situational awareness and significant effort on the part of all parties affected.

Chapter 6 – And Meets a Guide
“The fatal mistake some brands make, especially young brands who believe they need to prove themselves, is they position themselves as the hero in the story instead of the guide. As I’ve already mentioned, a brand that positions itself as the hero is destined to lose.” page 75
“The larger point here is simple: the day we stop losing sleep over the success of our business and start losing sleep over the success of our customers is the day our business will start growing again.” page 77
“The guide, not the hero, is the one with the most authority.” page 77
“In fact, leaders who think the story of life is all about them may achieve temporary successes but are usually remembered in history’s narrative as a villain.” page 77
The two things a brand must communicate to position themselves as the guide are: Empathy and Authority
- We care
- We can help – knowledge
Empathy:
- Authority: knows what they are doing
- Testimonials
- Statistics
- Awards
- Logos
2 Questions: Can I trust this person? Can I respect this person?
- Empathy — trust
- Authority — respect
Brainstorm empathetic statements you can make so your prospects know you care about their internal problems.
Brainstorm ways you can demonstrate competence and authority by exploring potential testimonials, statistics that demonstrate competence, awards you’ve won, or logos from other businesses you’ve helped.
