According to presentation professor Andrew Abela, before drawing a slide for use in your board room presentation (you draw the slide before you create it), make sure you answer "yes" to all these questions:
- Can I summarize the message in one-sentence?
- Is the message supported by the data?
- Is the message new to my audience?
- Is the message interesting to my audience?
- Is the message important to my audience?
