PowerPoint Draft Instructions and Submission

For the PowerPoint presentation assignment, you will create an engaging presentation (dubbed with your audio narration) that summarizes and explains your chosen book. The PowerPoint presentation must condense the content to its most important real-world usable points.

For this DRAFT assignment, you only have to upload the well-designed slides; you are not required to have your audio completed by this time. I will give you feedback on design and content.

The draft is worth 25 points, and these are “all or nothing points.”  If you turn in a complete draft on time, you get the points and the review by me.  If you don’t, you do not get points or a review.

 Make sure your presentation includes:

· Slide 1:  A cover slide that includes the title of the presentation, title of the book, name of the author, and your name.

· Slide 2:  An agenda slide that lets the audience know the main points that you are going to cover in the presentation. I expect that you will cover approximately (but not limited to) 5-10 key points from your book.

· Slide 3:  Slide about the authors. Brief background on your author.

· Slides 4-14:  Your key points. You can have up to 10 key points (one per slide) but no more than 10.

· Slide 15: Your conclusion slide.

At this point in your college life, I do expect that you know how to create a PowerPoint, so this class will not teach PowerPoint basics. I have, however, included a few links to resources that explain some of the ins and outs of good PowerPoint design and as well as the dos and don’ts of PowerPoint.

A few items to note:

· When you are putting together your presentation, think about your purpose as twofold: informational and persuasive. You are providing the information to the class for their edification, and you promoting this book as something they should read.

· Images! Images and graphical quality are extremely important! If your content is amazing but is put into a boring, lifeless PowerPoint, your content will not appeal to your audience. Try these free image websites: unsplash.com, pexels.com, and pixabay.com.

· The presentation should be limited to 10 minutes and 15 slides.  You can’t cover everything in this time frame, so make sure what you cover are the true key points!

· Super important: Make sure that the slides and audio match up and that the slideshow plays by itself–meaning that once the audio is finished with the slide, the slide automatically moves to the next slide. If your slideshow does not play seamlessly, I will deduct 10 points.

Scenario

You are in the tenth week of the XYZ Business Workflow project, and things haven’t quite gone according to plan. At the end of the requirements analysis phase, your team told you that:

  • Feature 2 (F2) development is more complex than thought initially. It will take at least 10 workweeks to be complete.
  • Feature Customization 3 (C3) will take close to five workweeks.
  • The complete system testing will take a minimum of one-and-a-half weeks due to the complexity of the systems involved.

You made some necessary resource and schedule adjustments in your plan and obtained stakeholder approval for the same.

However, due to delays in getting client approvals, UI design and development took one week more than estimated, which has now pushed all dependent tasks out by a week. Moreover, a resource availability issue has added three days to the Feature 1 development effort.

You are scheduled to present a project status report at the end of the week at a stakeholders’ meeting that will include the client’s representatives.

As the newly hired human resources (HR) manager for a jewelry store, you have placed your initial focus on the areas of staffing and training development. During your organizational analysis, you discovered the following with regard to staffing and training:

Line managers are currently handling the recruiting and staffing functions. Each manager tends to follow different hiring practices. Some of the managers are reluctant to hand over the hiring of their staff to the HR department. Other managers feel burdened with the staffing responsibilities and are anxious to turn it over as quickly as possible. No job descriptions exist within the organization.
Upon hire, employees are given a 2-hour orientation session focusing on department policy and procedure. There is no additional training given, but rather, it is on the job training and learn as you go. There are no formal training classes and no management training programs.
You would like to obtain feedback from the line managers prior to making a presentation to the chief executive officer (CEO). Taking the above conditions into consideration, address the following questions in a presentation that you will deliver to a team of three to four line managers:

Staffing Function:

What are your preliminary recommendations with regard to centralizing the staffing function under the HR umbrella?
What will the new process look like?
With regard to this new staffing strategy, what challenges do you anticipate, and what is your plan to overcome those challenges?
How can you position this to demonstrate how this will impact the performance efforts of the organization?
What results do you anticipate?
Training and Development Function:

With regard to the training/development function, what preliminary recommendations would you make?
