Want Greater Engagement? Stop Hiding Behind Your Slides

from Public Speaking with Peter George · host Peter George

Your slides aren't your presentation — you are. Yet most speakers build their deck first, then figure out what to say about each slide, and end up reading from the screen with their backs to the audience. In this episode, Peter George flips the script on how you think about visual aids, sharing a simple but powerful reframe that will change the way you prepare and deliver every talk going forward. You'll walk away with five practical principles for using slides the right way — from cutting clutter and choosing authentic visuals to animating with purpose and breaking the habit of reading from the screen. If your slides have been carrying your presentation, it's time to take that weight back. Step forward, own the room, and own your message.
