I know that at times, we have repeated this over and over, but a Power Point presentation is not the place for a wall of text.
Text belongs in a handout.
Your audience did not come to a presentation to read.
They came to listen to you. They came to hear an interesting story; they came to hear you make connections and give them ideas; they came to hear the passion in your voice; they did not come to read.
They can read at home.
Consider how information is conveyed in this graphic. It is effective because conveys a lot of information in a short amount of time, and, frankly, it is just more interesting than a wall of text.
Look over each and every slide in your presentation. Is there a way to graphically represent the information?
