I have never given a presentation and I will be given a 15 minute one next week. I know how to dress professionally and I have a small written detailed but to the point written handout and gifts for all and even prizes if they answer questions during my Power point. The power point is very graphic made to get there attention about avoidable service calls and all one liners. The problem is I am not that good with PowerPoint but have some sound effects. I see a comment suggesting 1 minute per slide, would that be correct and if I have thirty should I spilt them on the pages? Also this is a 2 hour meeting and I will be the first speaker and want them to remember me. Can anyone suggest any great ice breakers if I notice anyone not paying attention? This meeting is in front of over one hundred employees including the president of my company that has never heard me speak and a group of employees that I have never met.
