Utilizing PowerPoint’s Presenter View in Zoom for AI Industry Board Presentations
PowerPoint’s Presenter View combined with Zoom can be a powerful tool for delivering impactful AI industry board presentations. Here are some best practices to maximize its potential:
1. Set Up Your Display Settings Correctly
First, ensure your display settings are configured correctly. To use Presenter View, you need two screens. Your laptop or monitor can serve as one screen and the Zoom meeting as the second. In PowerPoint, go to “Slide Show” > “Set Up Slide Show” > “Presented by a speaker (Full screen)” to ensure a full-screen display of your slides.
2. Familiarize Yourself with Presenter View Features
Presenter View provides several handy features, such as slide thumbnails, notes, and a timer. Familiarizing yourself with these features ahead of time can make your presentation smoother and more professional.
3. Use Zoom’s Share Screen Feature
Once you’ve started your PowerPoint slideshow, go to your Zoom meeting and select “Share Screen”. Choose the PowerPoint window (not the entire screen) to share your presentation with the audience.
4. Engage the Audience
Engage your audience by using PowerPoint’s annotation tools or Zoom’s whiteboard feature. These tools can help you highlight key points and facilitate interactive discussions.
5. Practice Makes Perfect
Before the actual presentation, do a dry run to ensure you’re comfortable with switching between screens and using the annotation tools. This practice will help you present more confidently and effectively.
6. Create a Design That Suits the AI Industry
Your PowerPoint design should reflect the AI industry’s sophistication and innovation. Use clean lines, professional fonts, and high-quality images to create a visually appealing and relevant presentation.
7. Incorporate Data Visualisation
AI presentations often involve complex data. Incorporate charts, graphs, and infographics to make your data easily understandable and engaging.
8. Keep it Simple and Focused
Lastly, keep your slides simple and focused. Each slide should only convey one idea. This approach will help your audience absorb information better and keep them engaged throughout your presentation.
By following these best practices, you can use PowerPoint’s Presenter View and Zoom effectively to deliver impactful AI industry board presentations.
