FAQs
PrezExpert has developed an optimal process that helps professionals of all levels to develop presentations from scratch. We call this process SP2C™: Scope – Plan – Create – Check.
This process is supported by 3 exclusive tools, the pSCOPE™, pPLAN™ and pCHECK™, in which we have embedded proprietary business communications frameworks such as the 7 Types of Presentation Objectives and the content Building Blocks.
The SP2C™ process and the pTOOLS™ toolkit help our clients, and PrezExpert, to create more effective presentations in less time. This is confirmed through our own experience, formal and informal client feedback, and our long-term impact surveys.
Yes. We have measured the impact of our program in 2 different ways:
First, we receive unsolicited feedback such as this one: “Reworks have been greatly reduced and meetings are a lot tighter now. For example, my FY18 budget meeting was scheduled for 150 minutes but was done in 75 minutes.”
Second, we perform long-term impact surveys of workshop participants. Our latest survey confirmed that:
98% of participants improved the effectiveness of their presentations
87% of participants saved time when creating new presentations
15% average time savings when creating presentations (equivalent to ~2 weeks per year for most professionals)
66% of participants now work more efficiently with their superior on presentations
Yes, indeed they do. In fact, there is a 60/40 split between theory and hands-on individual and group exercises.
Practice time is essential for ensuring that workshop participants gain first-hand experience and coaching on how to apply their new skills and tools, so they can reap the full long-term benefits.
Absolutely. Our workshops do not focus solely on features of PowerPoint. You will also learn a process and tools that will help you to properly scope your presentation requirement(s), define their structure and storyline, and create effective slides in terms of content clarity, messaging, and visual impact.
Our approach is relevant and applicable regardless of the presentation software that you are using. In fact, we have already trained many professionals who were using a presentation software other than PowerPoint.
Coaching services can be provided on any presentation, regardless of the presentation software used.
PowerPoint is the software that we use to program corporate presentation templates and create presentations for our clients, and we can work with clients to ensure a smooth conversion to another software application when needed.
Anyone who is involved in the process of developing business presentations for internal or external audiences. We have trained a wide range of professionals, up to VP level, across all business functions: strategic planning, sales, marketing, finance, human resources, engineering and R&D, purchasing, operations, and IT.
Yes, our training workshops will greatly help you, regardless of your PowerPoint skills level. In fact, PrezExpert’s most popular workshops are NOT focused on PowerPoint tips. They will teach you principle of storytelling and slide design which you can easily apply regardless of the software used. Having said that, if your employer has invested in a highly functional corporate PowerPoint template such as the ones built by PrezExpert, we will show you how to get the most of it. Finally, if you feel that your PowerPoint skills are too limited, you could benefit from our half-day workshop dedicated to PowerPoint: “Mastering PowerPoint“.
