Death by PowerPoint
In October Larry Weber did a book signing at Digitas. I found it very impressive, the topic being marketing to the social web, he didn't have a PowerPoint presentation, didn't show any Web sites, it was a conversation.
Then I think of Al Gore's Inconvenient Truth slides or Dick Hardt's Infamous Identity 2.0 presentation and ask "How do we get away from all the slides?"
Its difficult in consulting because the deck becomes a record of the deliverable - its the reference to look back on, and it serves as content for those that couldn't attend. This presentation suggests you create a document with all the details and the PowerPoint remain a visual aid.
Everyone should check out this brilliant presentation on Slideshare, "Death by PowerPoint."
