TLDR:
✔️ P.L.A.Y. with your live audience. Don't focus so much on the slides. Focus on them.
✔️ H.O.S.T. them.
How you make them feel is the stuff people actually remember and act on.
A survey of professionals on presentations (Prezi / Kelton, summarized by Chief Media) found that:
🎯 People are far more engaged when presentations have: a clear story, visually stimulating elements, and two-way dialogue
🎯 Boring, text-heavy slides make people zone out, multitask, and forget the content
