Beyond Bullet Points
I collect books on trial advocacy, communication, persuasion and just about any subject that will help with trial advocacy. Like most people I have a hard time finding the time to read them all or to make a decision about which book I should read next. One of those books sitting on my shelf is Beyond Bullet Points: Using Microsoft Powerpoint to Create Presentations that Inform, Motivate and Inspire by Cliff Atkinson. It will be the next book I pull off the shelf. I stumbled across an old post from back in May 17, 2006 that gave a link to a one hour webinar that he gave on his ideas about using PowerPoint. For those who have fallen asleep watching bullet pointed presentations this webinar will point you to a way of doing presentations wherein the audience (i.e. jury) will not fall asleep and will retain the information presented better.
