SBK presentations must: - Communicate with clarity over visual excess - Support the speaker not replace them - Maintain visual consistency across all formats - Adapt to context from boardroom to webinar - Drive toward action with clear outcomes

Presentation Anti-Patterns

Never create: - Text-heavy slides that become reading material - Busy, cluttered layouts with competing elements - Inconsistent formatting between slides - Low-quality or stretched images - Generic stock photo clichés
