Class: Management & Organization

POWERPOINT PRESENTATION WITH SPEAKER NOTES: DUE (NLT) FEBRUARY 23, 2019

Overview:

The ability to prepare a focused persuasive presentation and deliver it to a group is a critical skill for success in any organization. This assignment will help you develop these skills.

Each manager will select a professional quality book about management, read the book, and make a presentation to recommend whether the rest of us should read this book. Your presentation should be focused and practiced so that you can present it to the class in three to five minutes.

This is not a 'book report'; please do not present a summary of the book. This needs to be your personal recommendation, based on your experience of the book, convincingly supported with appropriate content about the author and the book. Persuade us why this book was valuable to you (or why it was a waste of time), and produce in us a desire to read or avoid the book.

Presentation - Content Instructions

Your presentation for this class will be a 3- to 5-minute persuasive presentation about the book you read, either recommending the book to others or warning them away from the book.

This is not a 'book report'; please do not present a summary of the book. This needs to be your personal recommendation, based on your experience of the book, convincingly supported with appropriate content about the author and the book. Persuade us why this book was valuable to you (or why it was a waste of time), and produce in us a desire to read or avoid the book.

Before preparing your slides and presentation notes, you will need to draft the content based on the following outline. The draft is not a graded part of this assignment, but is critical to producing quality slides and presentation notes, which will be a graded part of the assignment. The recommended number of slides you will be using to cover each point follows the content point, to aid you in judging the amount of detail for that point.
