A Presentation That Engages - Six leaders explain how they get their message across in the conference room

Stories, Google’s chief executive officer Sundar Pichai says, are best told with pictures. During the company’s annual developer conference in San Francisco in May, the Indian-American presented clutterfree slides, dissecting Big Data in pictures and simple words. His first slide, for instance, had only the logos for Google’s primary products—Gmail, Android, Chrome, Maps, Search, YouTube and the Google Play Store—along with the text “1 Billion+ Users”. His message: Each of the seven products has over a billion monthly-users.

AFP Google CEO Sundar Pichai’s presentation at the annual developer conference in May in the US was all about simple, clutter-free slides.

Office presentations can be boring, especially when they are crammed with words. It is actually more difficult to process information if it comes simultaneously in both verbal and written forms, according to a study published in 2013 in the International Journal Of Engineering Education. Visuals tend to have a greater impact, it says.

We asked six leaders across sectors to tell us how they create their presentations and what, according to them, is an ideal presentation.
