When to use it

Before any presentation built on slides.

The steps

  1. Take one slide.
  2. Hide its text.
  3. State the slide's core message.
  4. Explain why it matters.
  5. Give one supporting point.
  6. Give one example if it is needed.
  7. Reveal the slide.
  8. Check whether what you said matches what is on it.

You know it worked when

You can carry the idea without the slide.

What else it works, and why

Delivery
Visual information has to become spoken communication.
Presence
You communicate without hiding behind the slide.
Connection
The explanation answers what the audience needs to understand.

Which drill is yours, in what order and at what dose, is not something a page can tell you. That is what a Discovery Call is for.
