Oh yeah, that it was written by "juveniles." Tom Peters is all ego, all the time. What was it Peter Drucker said about In Search of Excellence? Oh yeah, that it was written by “juveniles.”

Ever insightful! I was wondering if you've had a chance to look at "Freepath"? I read about it on the Indezine blog, he seemed to like it. I think what you're saying really is that excellent communication needs excellent content, and if the program performs like they say it does: integrating flash, web pages, audio, movies, excel and word, and multiple PowerPoints, all accessible from one interface; that would be a huge step forward in conquering presentation atrophy. They have a free trial: www.freepath.com . From the time I've had so far, it's looking good! Cheers Barnabas Hello Teeth, and thanks for your blog. Ever insightful!

Very astute and honest. "I personally have never heard him previously, but this first experience was enough never to go back." LOL!!...Brilliant! Superb commentary Awab. Very astute and honest.

I am amazed by such people who get away with making so much money and all they have to do is bull shit. I would rather go and pay a memon to teach me practical stuff.

Maybe Tom Peters can write another book on presentations after this experience. Maybe even say "I was testing the ground" and then give its analysis. Smart/shrewd (your choice of adjective) people will turn failures into success !! The 120 slides might have been the content for a 4 hour seminar and he just didn't bother to condense it. Yeah, perfect summary.

Nowonder the presenter may not be prepared. I wonder how he would have managed it all or rather messed it all (as you explained) hah.. I believe bringing colours is not bad and showing a different idea, font, size and colour, strategy would help audience to stick and avoids monotonous but looking at few slides I also felt as 'what the hell hes trying to explain'. Yeah 7X 730A equation slide doesnt say anything, your right, idea that you explained could be presented in some more understandable way. O bythe way who asked you to pay for this show? Where you also had to enjoy 20 minutes Spanish :P Just downloaded that ppt file and I would agree that it can never be a 90 minutes game. Nowonder the presenter may not be prepared.
