Your presentation and slides need powerful headlines























On April 24, 2019 there was an article by Richard Dean at Enrepreneur titled Own the stage: here’s why your presentation needs a Twitter-friendly headline. It was subtitled by and opened with excellent advice to:
“Boil your presentation down to a single, snappy sentence that would fit into a single tweet.”


One example he gave described how in January 2007 Steve Jobs had introduced the iPhone with just a five-word headline:

“Today Apple reinvents the phone.”

On June 4, 2018 I blogged about how A presentation slide. Presentation, or blog post needs a great headline rather than just a title. The example of an eye-catching tabloid headline I used was a 1985 book title:

“Dwarf rapes nun; flees in UFO.”

The 1955 image of Senator Henry Ashurst buying a newspaper came from the Library of Congress.
