For any great presentation, powerpoint is just the medium , STORY comes FIRST

Adopted from the following great insight shared by Carmine Gallo from the book Talk Like Ted

“What’s the first thing you should do when creating a PowerPoint presentation? If you’re like many people you’ll say, “Open PowerPoint.” Wrong answer. You should plan the story first. Just as a movie director storyboards the scenes before he begins shooting, you should create the story before you open the tool. You’ll have plenty of time to design pretty slides once the story is complete, but if the story is boring, you’ve lost your audience before you’ve spoken a word.”
