Avoid text-heavy slides. Simplify, simplify and simplify.

Too much text forces the audience to invest a good share of their cognitive capacity to read, decipher, interpret, and understand your slides. As a result, he pays less attention to what you say.

A good visual support your words rather than competing for the audience’s attention. Avoid text-heavy slides.

Good presentation

P.S.: Thanks to Michele Thibeau whose illustration inspired me for today’s trick and who kindly accepted that I use it for my visual.
