Real Leaders Don't Do PowerPoint


I read this because of the title (not the subtitle). I have done PowerPoint but have always felt more confident without it. The author's point that PowerPoint conveys information but the speaker's job is to inspire and influence is a good one. The audience does not make as good a personal connection with a screen as it does with a person.

So ... PowerPoint: asset or crutch?
