Presentation Pro Gifts

"For God's sake, Edwards. Put the laser pointer away."

'Almost finished.'

'Before our principal addresses the faculty, there's something important that has to be said.'

'Which 'win' is ours? Because the one on the left looks bigger.'

'But before we move on, allow me to belabor the point even further...'

In the interest of bringing greater creativity into the workplace...

"First, I want to give you an overview of what I will tell you over and over again during the entire presentation."

'I see you're still trying to get the staff enthused over the weekly meetings.' (Meeting offers free coffee, free snacks, eye-popping charts, exciting videos and free idea pads).

'I'd like to push the envelope, go the extra mile, and think outside the box to facilitate a win-win solution to the over-utilization of buzzwords.'

This may help you understand my presentation.

'I have identified 240 stages of organizational change. Before I discuss them, coffee anyone?'

"I'm razzled, but not dazzled."

"Pie charts cost too much. So I ordered tart charts."

'...As you can see, our proposal is also fully buzzword-compliant.'

"One of the most compelling graphic presentations I've ever seen!"

'In preparing for his big speech Thorton practices freezing mindlessly in front of a mirror.'

'In the absence of an agenda I thought I'd spend the next couple of hours droning on and on about anything that pops into my head!'

Try to hold your audience's attention when giving a presentation.

'Our actual performance over the last quarter depends much on one's perspective. Take, for example, this perspective.'

People, what a fantastic opportunity for a reset!

"I'm going to bombard you with graphs until you agree with me."

'Who's pumped about this meeting?!'

"I don't think I need to explain to anyone exactly what this chart means for us... but just for fun, someone explain it to me."

'Zog make very persuasive power point presentation.'

"Good report. It almost blew me away."

"...and it was at this point that I started taking better care of myself."

'Don't worry about this meeting. I got everything we need right up here.'

'And were there a point to your proposal, Henderson - What would it be?'

"Oops! Wrong plug."

'This chart indicates that the big hand is on the 12, and the small hand is on the 5. Who knows what this means?'

'I have only ten minutes and hardly know where to begin. Begin at the ninth.'

"For cryin' out loud, Frank, we don't have all day! Cut to the cheese!"

"In order to cut costs we are no longer animating our presentations..."

'Who said 'duh'?'

'Maybe the reason we don't have those 'off the chart' sales anymore is because our charts are too big.'
