Assignment 3: Presentation Design and Delivery Due Week 9, Sunday (Weight: 25%) "The art of communication is the language of leadership." James Humes For this assignment, you will apply the practices of planning, creating, and delivering an impactful professional presentation. Identify an important presentation coming up at work in your near future. If you do not have one on the horizon, choose a worthy topic for your role, business, or industry. This could be a presentation at a conference, to your board, management team, your own team, or a few key decision-makers in your company. Think carefully about how to define the major objectives of your presentation, so that you can design and deliver your presentation with those objectives clearly in mind. Instructions Follow the steps below to prepare your slide deck and create your video presentation in Zoom:

1. Prepare a PowerPoint presentation slide deck of 20 slides or less for a topic of your choice, related to your workplace or career interests.

2. Apply slide design best practices: use brief slide headings and minimal text, include images and/or charts, and format your slides professionally

3. Deliver a presentation with a time limit of 6 to 8 minutes, using Zoom. The video must include both you and your slides. The main focus is you, the speaker, with the slides providing support for your ideas and overall message.

4. Be sure to utilize and to exhibit all the presentation and video best practices listed below.

Note: See your Blackboard course for instructions on using Zoom.
