Gtfoutta here with that prezi nonsense
Can you imagine turning up to a board meeting with a prezi. I would piss myself laughing
Prezi is smoke and mirrors
@OP, you're not. In fact, BCG recently introduced a 2-D approach to presenting that we adopted company-wide. It's definitely something to think about.
BCG1 that is what the client wanted....
Key message slides horizontally. Detail info slides vertically. Read your audience and drill down if needed, otherwise focus on telling a story using the key message slides.
Works very well in a board room when you have CXOs who want to skip around content.
@OP We adapted PowerPoint using a custom plug-in, pretty amazing stuff.
@D1 I'm not talking about the slide itself. I'm talking about the decks slide layout. So when you're presenting a slide, instead of just hitting the left and right arrows on your keyboard, you'd also hit up and down to navigate in a second dimension around slides.
If you want to talk only high level, use left and right to transition on key message slides. If you need to drill down on a key message, press up and down to present a detail slide which covers the finer components of that message.
Sorry D1, not sure if I answered your question 😅. Advantage is when you want to tell a story with key messages: your problem is this > our investigation said this > we recommend this, you scroll only left and right. But if the audience randomly asks what the factors are behind our recommendation or to what level of confidence are we certain that the recommendation will work, then drill down on "our recommendation is this" with detail slides by hitting up or down, thereby keeping the focus of the story on key messages unless details are asked.
It's a huge improvement on keeping clients focused on the crux of the meeting.
I must admit though, I resonate 110% with the "gtfoutta here with that Prezi nonsense" comment...
Prezi is the worst. Used it once for a board meeting and it took 100x more work to use it than ppt
Prezi used to give me motion sickness and thank God we don’t use it.
I did once. More work to move all the pieces around etc
BCG2 what is a 2d approach? I’m curious as I’ve recently had a few meetings where we use Tableau instead of decks and they have gone quite well. I do work in analytics though so it makes sense
Sounds way more interesting than PowerPoint
Love it. Thanks BCG2. Curious if you developed a new tool for this or adapted PowerPoint?
What is the advantage to having details be vertical?
Ok that makes a ton of sense. I had this weird image of horizontal and vertical slides and couldn’t figure out what was going on besides strange formatting ;)
Exactly BCG2. Sick of having to pile on the appendix slides in a linear order when slides and the story are all tied together in some sort of a “mind map" fashion. Hence the mention of prezi. 2D is definitely an improvement over linear
