To educate is to empower.
A person who feels good—feels confident—about the work they are presenting creates impact and engagement with their audience, and the audience retains significantly more of the information being presented. I created Designed to Engage as a platform to provide training on creating engaging presentations through effective storytelling, design concepts for better engagement, and ways of working more efficiently with PowerPoint. I also offer Designed to Support—a collaborative working session to help shape and elevate in-progress work through real-time guidance, strategy, and design input.
