Mastering Presentation

Mastering Presentation Skills using Microsoft PowerPoint By Palani Murugappan

If you are unable or not confident enough to answer the above questions, here is the book for you. This book was specially written to those out there who will be making some sort of presentation to their peers, colleagues, employers, or to the general public but lack the “know-how”. The book starts off by introducing some general rules and ideas on public speaking and moves on to creating creative and dazzling slide presentations using Microsoft PowerPoint. Many tips, shortcuts, and other pointers on maximizing PowerPoint are highlighted too. While many books have been written on Microsoft PowerPoint, this book attempts to blend PowerPoint with how the presenter will make his presentations to the public. Of course, as in any book, you should have some basic understanding of what PowerPoint is and how it works. All of the examples in this book are illustrated with the appropriate screen captures to simplify the learning curve.
