I came from industry and the organization I work for used Prezi. I hadn’t used PowerPoint in years so my skills were really rusty. It sounds really stupid, but what helped me immensely was actually recording conversations when going through with leader ship to edit a PowerPoint. I found I would miss details during the quick conversation and wasn’t picking them up on my own review. Going back through and listening to that conversation really helped me pick up the details and I’ve gotten in the habit from that to know what to look for much more quickly.

Flip through the popular magazines, both social in nature and honestly the big furniture players like resorption hardware catalogues. Might sound crazy but they hire some of the best design and ad shops to produce really compelling visuals and storylines for their front page stories. I look for structure, organization and design tips and snap photos of the pages that really stand out to me as compelling. Not for the actual content but when I open PowerPoint to work a deck, I’ll often quickly browse those pictures and/or even copy the layout and sizing and just layer in my content. Half the time making decks is figuring out how to design around the story you want to tell and fitting in what goes where. I now crank out decks where folks are typically pretty blown away, in a matter of an hour
