Presentation Guild Q&A with Nancy Duarte
You all know who Nancy Duarte is. Take a moment to think of the question you most want to ask her. Would it be, "How can I create and lead a presentation design team?" Or is it, "What do you see as the top slide design trends today?" Maybe it's something like, "Would you recommend I add Prezi or Canva expertise to my skill set?" Good news for Presentation Guild members: you can ask her, live and in real time. On Tuesday, December 13, from 11 am to 12 pm Eastern; Presentation Guild Director Ric Bretschneider will host an exclusive Q&A web session with the leader of Duarte Design. Ric, a longtime friend and presentation industry colleague of Nancy's, will likely add much to the conversation, given his 17 years of experience as a PowerPoint Program Manager at Microsoft. You may have caught Nancy at the recent Presentation Summit. You might even own one of her influential books (including her latest book with co-author Patti Sanchez, Illuminate: Ignite Change Through Speeches, Stories, Ceremonies, and Symbols). You may have even met her at various speaking engagements or conferences such as TED. But you still haven't asked Nancy that one burning question, right? Sign up now for your opportunity to so!

Realizing that there is an opportunity to service this market, he collaborated with like-minded professionals and co-founded Slideteam.net, which has now become the world’s largest supplier of innovative, creative and highly effective PowerPoint presentation content, and a go-to resource for anybody who uses PowerPoint.

Learn PowerPoint 2016 for WindowsInsert Pictures  It is true that both pictures and words are important, and they both play complementary roles. If you had to choose just one of them; then seeing is a much more important part of presenting. Presentations, by their very nature, are meant to be seen since they evoke actions such as project, display, or broadcast; and all of these actions represent visual media. Text and speaking are important too, but you can be more effectively heard and remembered if your content includes both text and pictures. Adding pictures to your PowerPoint 2016 slide is a great way to add some visual detail. |

Learn PowerPoint 2010 for WindowsReordering and Removing Ribbon Tabs  PowerPoint 2010 sports the Ribbon, which is tabbed, and each of these tabs contains a set of commands. By default, PowerPoint 2010 contains eight such tabs. All tabs can be reordered as required. However, the eight default Ribbon tabs can only be reordered and not removed. However, many tabs including the Developer tab can be hidden. Working with Custom Groups in Ribbon Tabs  All Ribbon tabs in PowerPoint 2010 may have any number of buttons that represent commands but they are not scattered all over the tab area. In fact, all of them are neatly arranged together in Groups. Each of these Groups has a name that describes what the commands within that Group do. For example, the Slide Show tab in the Ribbon has a group named Set Up. This contains all commands that help you set up your slide show, such as changing show settings, hiding slides, rehearsing and recording slide shows, etc. It is only sensible to imagine that you should use this Group concept while creating custom Ribbon tabs. In fact, PowerPoint will not let you add any command anywhere else other than within a custom Group. Adding Commands to Custom Groups  If you want to customize your Ribbon in PowerPoint, you'll want to add some of the commands that were not placed by default within any of the Ribbon tabs. Or maybe you want a particular command available on the Home tab of the Ribbon. Whatever your intent may be, you cannot place any commands within the existing groups that are built within PowerPoint. You first need to add a custom group within any of the tabs available in the Ribbon. Thereafter, you need to populate them with commands. |
