I used this set of slides for a lecture on delivering talks held at the University of Zurich in April 2009.

1. Presenting
Tudor Gîrba
www.tudorgirba.com

2. Roadmap
• Every talk must start with a roadmap
• So:
• First, I will tell you about what I am going to tell you
• Then, I will tell you why it is important
• Then, I will tell it to you
• Then, I will tell you what I told you
• And then, I will conclude

3. About this talk
•I used to be extremely afraid of speaking in public
• In fact, I was so afraid that I could hardly speak
•But, because I had to speak, I spent a bit of time thinking
about it
•Today, I will share with you some of my reflections on how to
do presentations
• I am actually quite nervous to talk about it here

4. Slides
• Every decent talk is accompanied by slides
• Text is difficult to read so, slides should not have more than 6
first level bullets
• The text should be no smaller than 12 pt
• A good slide has an engaging design
• Don’t just use a standard design
• Show that you care
• Let’s see what a good template is made of ...

5. The template in 4 steps

6. The template in 4 steps (1) tudor girba

1. Align title to the left, and add logo to the top right
• The logo should not be too large, but it should be visible at all time
• Adding it to the right, makes it secondary in the visual hierarchy so that it is not
compete with the rest of the text

4. Add footer
• Slide number is important to let the audience know about the progress
• Add your name, just in case they forgot it
• Add the date and place of the presentation to show that it is customized for the
situation

62. • The more text there is on a slide, the more I will tend
to speak it as it is written on the slide.
• But, you can read a text much faster than I can speak
it.
• In such situations, my speech becomes noise as you
rather prefer to just go ahead and read it by yourself.
• That is the reason why slides should not have text that
competes with my speech, but rather be as visual as
possible to complement it.
• I guess you are already reading this line while I am still
somewhere in the middle of the text.

• I guess you are already reading this line while I am still

One assumption is that slides must also carry the message in the absence of
the speaker, and hence most of the content must be on the slides. The result is
lots of bullet points and lots of text.
However, lots of text competes with the spoken words because we can just
read faster than we speak. And we want the audience to hear what we have to
notes will set you free say.
Another option is to put the text in the notes and provide slides with notes for
as printouts.
