2. Minimize the use of acronyms or internal lingo and jargon unless previously described/explained.
3. Do not tell jokes! Feel free to use humor, but not too much of that.
4. Avoid using graphics or photos on your PowerPoint presentation that may be nation-centric or that could be offensive to other cultures. Keep it simple!
5. Remember that your PowerPoint should only serve as an aid to your presentation with a limited number of words. Do not read your presentation.
