Many people dread being forced to endure PowerPoint presentations, because they are often painfully boring and poorly prepared. But they don’t have to be. I will be revealing some secrets to preparing engaging presentations with outstanding visual slides this week at a few locations in the San Francisco Bay Area.

On Wednesday, I will be presenting at L.E.B. Toastmasters, located at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. The meeting runs from 7:15 pm – 9 pm. Guests are welcome.

On Thursday, I will be at the HP/Hilltop Speakers (Toastmasters), located on the Hewlett Packard Campus, Building 20, 3000 Hanover Street, Palo Alto. The meeting runs from noon to 1 pm. Guests are welcome.

On May 6, I will be customizing the workshop for lawyers who attend the Legally Speaking Toastmasters in Palo Alto. They meet at the Keller Williams Realty office, 505 Hamilton Ave., Suite 100.
