presentation project sample

This simplistic presentation example employs several different colors and font weights, but instead of coming off as disconnected, the varied colors work with one another to create contrast and call out specific concepts.

What I like: The big, bold numbers help set the reader's expectations, as they clearly signify how far along the viewer is in the list of tips.

10. “Pixar's 22 Rules to Phenomenal Storytelling,” Gavin McMahon

This presentation by Gavin McMahon features color in all the right places. While each of the background images boasts a bright, spotlight-like design, all the characters are intentionally blacked out.

What I like: This helps keep the focus on the tips, while still incorporating visuals. Not to mention, it's still easy for me to identify each character without the details. (I found you on slide eight, Nemo.)

11. “Facebook Engagement and Activity Report,” We Are Social

Here's another great example of data visualization in the wild.

What I like: Rather than displaying numbers and statistics straight up, this presentation calls upon interesting, colorful graphs, and charts to present the information in a way that just makes sense.

12. “The GaryVee Content Model,” Gary Vaynerchuk

This wouldn‘t be a true Gary Vaynerchuk presentation if it wasn’t a little loud, am I right?

What I like: Aside from the fact that I love the eye-catching, bright yellow background, Vaynerchuk does a great job of incorporating screenshots on each slide to create a visual tutorial that coincides with the tips. He also does a great job including a visual table of contents that shows your progress as you go .

13. “20 Tweetable Quotes to Inspire Marketing & Design Creative Genius,” IMPACT Branding & Design

We‘ve all seen our fair share of quote-chronicling presentations but that isn’t to say they were all done well. Often the background images are poor quality, the text is too small, or there isn't enough contrast.

Well, this professional presentation from IMPACT Branding & Design suffers from none of said challenges.

What I like: The colorful filters over each background image create just enough contrast for the quotes to stand out.

14. “The Great State of Design,” Stacy Kvernmo

This presentation offers up a lot of information in a way that doesn't feel overwhelming.

What I like: The contrasting colors create visual interest and “pop,” and the comic images (slides 6 through 12) are used to make the information seem less buttoned-up and overwhelming.

15. “Clickbait: A Guide To Writing Un-Ignorable Headlines,” Ethos3

Not going to lie, it was the title that convinced me to click through to this presentation but the awesome design kept me there once I arrived.

What I like: This simple design adheres to a consistent color pattern and leverages bullet points and varied fonts to break up the text nicely.

16. “Digital Transformation in 50 Soundbites,” Julie Dodd

This design highlights a great alternative to the “text-over-image” display we've grown used to seeing.

What I like: By leveraging a split-screen approach to each presentation slide, Julie Dodd was able to serve up a clean, legible quote without sacrificing the power of a strong visual.

17. “Fix Your Really Bad PowerPoint,” Slide Comet

When you‘re creating a PowerPoint about how everyone’s PowerPoints stink, yours had better be terrific. The one above, based on the ebook by Seth Godin, keeps it simple without boring its audience.

What I like: Its clever combinations of fonts, together with consistent color across each slide, ensure you're neither overwhelmed nor unengaged.

18. “How Google Works,” Eric Schmidt

Simple, clever doodles tell the story of Google in a fun and creative way. This presentation reads almost like a storybook, making it easy to move from one slide to the next.

What I like: This uncluttered approach provides viewers with an easy-to-understand explanation of a complicated topic.

19. “What Really Differentiates the Best Content Marketers From The Rest,” Ross Simmonds

Let‘s be honest: These graphics are hard not to love. I especially appreciate the author’s cartoonified self-portrait that closes out the presentation. Well played, Ross Simmonds.

What I like: Rather than employing the same old stock photos, this unique design serves as a refreshing way to present information that's both valuable and fun.

20. “Be A Great Product Leader,” Adam Nash

This presentation by Adam Nash immediately draws attention by putting the company's logo first — a great move if your company is well known.

What I like: He uses popular images, such as ones of Megatron and Pinocchio, to drive his points home. In the same way, you can take advantage of popular images and media to keep your audience engaged.

As a bonus, several of our examples include editable video presentation templates from  Biteable .

Biteable allows anyone to create great video presentations — no previous video-making skills required. The easy-to-use platform has hundreds of brandable templates and video scenes designed with a business audience in mind. A video made with Biteable is just what you need to add that wow factor and make an impact on your audience.

Create videos that drive action

Activate your audience with impactful, on-brand videos. Create them simply and collaboratively with Biteable.

Video presentation examples

Video presentations are our specialty at Biteable. We love them because they’re the most visually appealing and memorable way to communicate.

1. Animated characters

Our first presentation example is a business explainer video from Biteable that uses animated characters. The friendly and modern style makes this the perfect presentation for engaging your audience.

Bonus template:  Need a business video presentation that reflects the beautiful diversity of your customers or team? Use  Biteable’s workplace scenes . You can change the skin tone and hair color for any of the animated characters.

2. Conference video

Videos are also ideal solutions for events (e.g. trade shows) where they can be looped to play constantly while you attend to more important things like talking to people and handing out free cheese samples.

For this event presentation sample below, we used bright colours, stock footage, and messaging that reflects the brand and values of the company. All these elements work together to draw the attention of passers-by.

For a huge selection of video presentation templates, take a look at our  template gallery .

Business PowerPoint presentation examples

Striking fear into the hearts of the workplace since 1987, PowerPoint is synonymous with bland, boring presentations that feel more like an endurance test than a learning opportunity. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Check out these anything-but-boring business PowerPoint presentation examples.

3. Design pointers

This PowerPoint presentation takes a tongue-in-cheek look at how the speakers and users of PowerPoint are the problem, not the software itself.

Even at a hefty 61 slides, the vintage theme, appealing colors, and engaging content keep the viewer interested. It delivers useful and actionable tips on creating a better experience for your audience.

Pixar, as you’d expect, redefines the meaning of PowerPoint in their “22 Rules for Phenomenal Storytelling”. The character silhouettes are instantly recognizable and tie firmly to the Pixar brand. The bright colour palettes are carefully chosen to highlight the content of each slide.

This presentation is a good length, delivering one message per slide, making it easy for an audience to take notes and retain the information.

Google slides examples

If you’re in business, chances are you’ll have come across  slide decks . Much like a deck of cards, each slide plays a key part in the overall ‘deck’, creating a well-rounded presentation.

If you need to inform your team, present findings, or outline a new strategy, slides are one of the most effective ways to do this.

Google Slides is one of the best ways to create a slide deck right now. It’s easy to use and has built-in design tools that integrate with Adobe, Lucidchart, and more. The best part — it’s free!

5. Teacher education

Here’s a slide deck that was created to educate teachers on how to use Google Slides effectively in a classroom. At first glance it seems stuffy and businessy, but if you look closer it’s apparent the creator knows his audience well, throwing in some teacher-friendly content that’s bound to get a smile.

The slides give walkthrough screenshots and practical advice on the different ways teachers can use the software to make their lives that little bit easier and educate their students at the same time.

6. Charity awareness raiser

This next Google slide deck is designed to raise awareness for an animal shelter. It has simple, clear messaging, and makes use of the furry friends it rescues to tug on heartstrings and encourage donations and adoptions from its audience.

Pro tip: Creating a presentation is exciting but also a little daunting. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed — especially if the success of your business or nonprofit depends on it.

Prezi presentation examples

If you haven’t come across  Prezi , it’s a great alternative to using static slides. Sitting somewhere between slides and a video presentation, it allows you to import other content and add motion to create a more engaging viewer experience.

7. Red Bull event recap

This Prezi was created to document the Red Bull stratosphere freefall stunt a few years ago. It neatly captures all the things that Prezi is capable of, including video inserts and the zoom effect, which gives an animated, almost 3D effect to what would otherwise be still images.  

Prezi has annual awards for the best examples of presentations over the year. This next example is one of the 2018 winners. It was made to highlight a new Logitech tool.

8. Logitech Spotlight launch

What stands out here are the juicy colors, bold imagery, and the way the designer has used Prezi to its full extent, including rotations, panning, fades, and a full zoom out to finish the presentation.

Sales presentation examples

If you’re stuck for ideas for your sales presentation, step right this way and check out this video template we made for you.

9. Sales enablement video presentation

In today’s fast-paced sales environment, you need a way to make your sales enablement presentations memorable and engaging for busy reps.  Sales enablement videos  are just the ticket. Use this video presentation template the next time you need to present on your metrics.

10. Zuroa sales deck

If you’re after a sales deck, you can’t go past this example from Zuora. What makes it great? It begins by introducing the worldwide shift in the way consumers are shopping. It’s a global phenomenon, and something we can all relate to.

It then weaves a compelling story about how the subscription model is changing the face of daily life for everyone. Metrics and testimonials from well-known CEOs and executives are included for some slamming social proof to boost the sales message.

Pitch presentation examples

Pitch decks are used to give an overview of business plans, and are usually presented during meetings with customers, investors, or potential partners.

11. Uber pitch deck

This is Uber’s original pitch deck, which (apart from looking a teensy bit dated) gives an excellent overview of their business model and clearly shows how they intended to disrupt a traditional industry and provide a better service to people. Right now, you’re probably very grateful that this pitch presentation was a winner.

You can make your own pitch deck with Biteable, or start with one of our  video templates  to make something a little more memorable.

12. Video pitch template

This video pitch presentation clearly speaks to the pains of everyone who needs to commute and find parking. It then provides the solution with its app that makes parking a breeze.

The video also introduces the key team members, their business strategy, and what they’re hoping to raise in funding. It’s a simple, clear pitch that positions the company as a key solution to a growing, worldwide problem. It’s compelling and convincing, as a good presentation should be.

13. Fyre Festival pitch deck

The most epic example of a recent pitch deck is this one for Fyre Festival – the greatest event that never happened. Marvel at its persuasion, gasp at the opportunity of being part of the cultural experience of the decade, cringe as everything goes from bad to worse.

Despite the very public outcome, this is a masterclass in how to create hype and get funding with your pitch deck using beautiful imagery, beautiful people, and beautiful promises of riches and fame.

Business presentation examples

Need to get the right message out to the right people? Business presentations can do a lot of the heavy lifting for you.

Simply press play and let your video do the talking. No fumbling your words and sweating buckets in front of those potential clients, just you being cool as a cucumber while your presentation does the talking.

Check out two of our popular templates that you can use as a starting point for your own presentations. While they’re business-minded, they’re definitely not boring.

14. Business intro template

Modern graphics, animations, and upbeat soundtracks keep your prospects engaged as they learn about your business, your team, your values, and how you can help them.

15. Business explainer template

Research presentation examples.

When you’re giving a more technical presentation such as research findings, you need to strike the perfect balance between informing your audience and making sure they stay awake.

As a rule, slides are more effective for research presentations, as they are used to support the speaker’s knowledge rather can capture every small detail on screen.

With often dry, complex, and technical subject matter, there can be a temptation for presentations to follow suit. Use images instead of walls of text, and keep things as easy to follow as possible.

16. TrackMaven research deck

TrackMaven uses their endearing mascot to lighten up this data-heavy slide deck. The graphs help to bring life to their findings, and they ensure to only have one bite-size takeaway per slide so that viewers can easily take notes.

17. Wearable tech research report

Obviously, research can get very researchy and there’s not a lot to be done about it. This slide deck below lays out a ton of in-depth information but breaks it up well with quotes, diagrams, and interesting facts to keep viewers engaged while it delivers its findings on wearable technology.

Team presentation examples

Motivating your team can be a challenge at the best of times, especially when you need to gather them together for….another presentation!

18. Team update template

We created this presentation template as an example of how to engage your team. In this case, it’s for an internal product launch. Using colorful animation and engaging pacing, this video presentation is much better than a static PowerPoint, right?

19. Officevibe collaboration explainer

This short slide deck is a presentation designed to increase awareness of the problems of a disengaged team. Bright colors and relevant images combine with facts and figures that compel viewers to click through to a download to learn more about helping their teams succeed.

Recruitment presentation examples

Recruiting the right people can be a challenge. Presentations can help display your team and your business by painting a dynamic picture of what it’s like to work with you.

Videos and animated slides let you capture the essence of your brand and workplace so the right employees can find you.

20. Company culture explainer

If you’re a recruitment agency, your challenge is to stand out from the hundreds of other agencies in the marketplace.

21. Kaizen culture

Showcasing your agency using a slide deck can give employers and employees a feel for doing business with you. Kaizen clearly displays its credentials and highlights its brand values and personality here (and also its appreciation of the coffee bean).

Explainer presentation examples

Got some explaining to do? Using an explainer video is the ideal way to showcase products that are technical, digital, or otherwise too difficult to explain with still images and text.

Explainer videos help you present the features and values of your product in an engaging way that speaks to your ideal audience and promotes your brand at the same time.

22. Product explainer template

23. lucidchart explainer.

Lucidchart does a stellar job of using explainer videos for their software. Their series of explainers-within-explainers entertains the viewer with cute imagery and an endearing brand voice. At the same time, the video is educating its audience on how to use the actual product. We (almost) guarantee you’ll have more love for spiders after watching this one.

10+ Outstanding PowerPoint Presentation Examples and Templates

Nobody said it’s easy to make a PowerPoint presentation . There are multiple design decisions to consider, like which layout is appropriate for the content you have to present, font pairing, color schemes, and whether to use animated elements or not. 

Making these choices when working under the clock is overwhelming for most people, especially if you only intend to make a report more visually appealing. For this very reason, we curated a selection of 11 good PowerPoint presentation examples categories in different niches to give you insights into what’s valued and how to take your presentations to a professional quality. All the templates used on each case will be linked for easy access.

Table of Contents

General Guidelines for Professional-Quality PowerPoint Presentations

Business pitch powerpoint presentation examples, marketing plan powerpoint presentation examples, company profile powerpoint presentation examples, quarterly/annual results presentation examples, project proposal presentation examples, training presentation examples, change management presentation examples, industry analysis presentation examples, financial planning examples, inspirational presentation examples, academic presentation examples, final words.

Before introducing our presentation slide examples, we need to discuss a list of factors that transform an average slide into a professional-quality one. 

Design Principles

For any professional-level slide deck, a consistent layout, color scheme, and font pairing are required throughout the presentation. The slides should remain uncluttered, with proper care of white balance across their composition, and stick to the 10-20-30 rule of presentations ’s concept of one concept per slide. 

Contrast between text and background color must comply with web design accessibility standards , meaning to work with a 4.5:1 contrast ratio for normal text, with exceptions for larger text. You can find more information in our article on accessibility for presentations .

A general rule in any graphic design project is to stick with fonts with ample legibility, like Arial, Helvetica, or Calibri. These are known as sans-serif fonts, and they work better than serif ones (i.e., Times New Roman) for larger text blocks.

Avoid using more than two different font families in your presentation; otherwise, the overall design will lose cohesion. Since you ought to ensure readability, the minimum size for body text should be 18pt, opting for larger variations and/or bold text for titles.

Using a combination of font pairing and font sizing helps create a hierarchy in your slides’ written content. For more insights on this topic, browse our article on fonts for presentations .

Color Scheme

Sticking to a color palette selection is one of the first design decisions to make when creating a custom slide deck . Colors have their own psychological impact on presentations, as explained in our article on color theory , so presenters must stick to 3-4 colors to avoid mixing up content in the slides. That being said, the colors have to be carefully selected according to the typical color scheme configurations, and using contrast to highlight key points on presentation slides.

Slide Layout

We can apply multiple graphic design guidelines to create professional-quality presentation slides, but in order to simplify the process, here are the key points to take into account:

• Grids and Guides: Divide your slide into sections using guides in PowerPoint or Google Slides. Then, you can build a grid that helps place elements and catch the viewer’s interest as they follow a logical flow while looking at the slide.
• Whitespace : Empty space is not your enemy. Slides shouldn’t be dense or feel hard on the eyes to read; therefore, work with a minimum of 30% whitespace.

Multimedia Elements

According to our expertise, video presentations and animation effects certainly increase the retention rate of the content you present. This is because they reduce the tiresome 2D presentation layout and add dynamism to the slides. Testing their functionality across different devices is a must to incorporate these elements into your presentation, especially if we consider that not all PowerPoint animation effects are compatible with Google Slides animations . 

Sound can be distracting in many scenarios unless you opt for an interactive presentation and require an audio track for an exercise. Action buttons in the form of quizzes or multiple-choice questions are fine examples of how we can integrate hyperlinks in interactive presentations.

The first professional PowerPoint example we will cover is when creating a problem slide business pitch. This selected business pitch PPT template has a 50/50 image-to-content balance that allows us to add images from our organization (or stick to the corporate placeholder image design) and quickly summarize the issue or need that our business aims to solve.

Remember that the selected colors for the text background area and text color are not 100% pure values—they are slight variations to reduce eye strain, making this slide a perfect choice for any kind of meeting room. Ideally, you can present up to three different problems to solve; otherwise, the text will look too small.

Another fine example of a PowerPoint presentation comes at the time of delivering an elevator pitch . As we all know, this concise presentation format requires a considerable amount of presentation aids to briefly expose each point in the speech under the allotted time frame. In this Revenue Model slide, we can find the answers to typical questions that help us shape the speech, all of them with icons and cues to remember from which areas the information comes.

If we aim to create a sponsorship pitch deck , it is important to bring proof of past sponsorship experiences to build our credibility in front of prospective sponsors. With this best PPT template tailored for sponsorship pitch presentations, we can display such data in an attractive visual format. The neat layout balances whitespace with content, with three distinctive KPI areas to talk about your history in sponsorship experiences. 

Talk about the market segmentation strategies of your marketing plan with this creative infographic template. This slide clearly illustrates that not all examples of PowerPoint presentations follow the same structure in terms of graphics-to-text balance. You can introduce data on how purchasing habits, user status, and brand loyalty influence buying decisions. Present key information about demographic & geographic segmentation and how psychographic information can provide deeper insights into consumer motivations to purchase.

Another PowerPoint example comes in the format of presenting market opportunities in marketing plans . You can list up to four points, which can be extracted from the outcomes of a SWOT analysis or from retrieved data from polls or stakeholders’ insights. The icons are entirely editable, and the crisp layout makes readability much easier.

Marketing agencies can benefit from this presentation PowerPoint example, which illustrates how easy it is to customize the content and repurpose slides for different client meetings. This and the other slides of this marketing plan slide deck allow professionals to discuss their expertise, past projects, and proposals for their target clients. In this case, the agency in question is offering insights on their work ethics through a clean slide layout with icons to flag key areas.

Our next PPT presentation example is suited for a Company Profile presentation in which we have to disclose key financial data. Thanks to the pie chart, presenters can segment revenue streams or do a balance between investments and profit. Additionally, the box placeholders allow us to deepen our knowledge of precise areas of interest.

Organizations who are looking to create a company profile can opt for a one-page arrangement to introduce the team members in charge, the overall services or products, the business model, the market, competitors, and relevant strategy information. The text boxes placed in the right area are a perfect opportunity to highlight KPIs.

In any company profile presentation, we have to introduce the organization’s Mission and Vision Statements. This presentation sample slide allows us to creatively discuss those topics. Including icons, users can summarize the primary aspects of their mission statement in one single, professionally styled slide.

Quarterly reports don’t need to be depicted as boring PDF files. We can work with clean layouts that provide information in an easy-to-follow format that focuses on the core elements of the report. This quarterly report presentation example is perfect for detailed reports as we cover all essentials in a one-page format for an employee’s performance review.

If, instead, you opt for a department-by-department approach, this slide presentation example illustrates two out of four quarters in the annual report. You can compare the product’s performance by production, allowing room to perform further optimizations based on sales behavior.

The construction industry requires a detailed presentation that covers all planned and contingency strategies for a project. Such an approach builds trust in the client, and that’s why we believe this PPT template for contractors is an essential tool for securing business deals. This presentation example template shows how to deliver a project proposal in style with accurate cost estimates.

A generic PPT project proposal template allows us to repurpose the slide for many projects—ideal for agencies, consultants, and academics. With this visual project proposal timeline, you can discuss the different stages of a project, plan for resources (both material and workforce), seek funding, or prepare for contingencies.

Once the project proposal’s core aspects are approved, teams must align efforts for project deliverables, acceptance criteria, and delivery format. This PPT presentation example illustrates a slide in a multi-team meeting to fine-tune aspects of the project deliverables, with an accurate representation of the due date and expected products.

Team training requires a framework in which the objectives of the workshop, coaching, or mentoring programs are laid out for management. HR teams can benefit from this presentation example by summarizing the objectives about missed business opportunities or expansion plans for the organization.

Before even delivering a training program, HR teams discuss the content to cover with the head of each department, mainly to spot any missing area of knowledge required for optimal operations. Presenters can repurpose this slide for that kind of training proposal presentation or the training presentation itself.

Intended for the early planning stages of a training program, this diagram is a well-rounded presentation example of how to discuss all points in one single slide, from the training budget to how to process employee feedback. We can expand each of these six topics in companionship slides.

Companies undergoing change management processes can opt to apply the DMAIC or the ADKAR frameworks to orient the workforce. This presentation slide allows management to compare both methodologies and pick the one best suited for their organization.

Since data sharing is delicate in charge management situations, implementing an information flow diagram is a good practice to orient your team, get the new owners or management the required information, and exchange information between departments.

For change management directed at process optimization, this example slide allows management to stress the importance between the current situation and the expected improved state. This PPT template can also introduce the different milestones per stage and involve the management parties per area.

Startups often present their industry analysis to procure investment from venture capitalists. This industry analysis presentation example showcases a typical FinTech segmentation. Presenters can describe the different types of crowdfunding, credit, and factoring services and provide examples of companies or platforms in each subcategory. They can discuss areas like asset management, payments, and other relevant aspects in detail, with successful stories from referents that helped shape their business model.

STEEPLE stands for Social, Technological, Economic, Ethical, Political, Legal, and Environmental factors. This framework allows us to perform a multidimensional industry analysis in which stakeholders can evaluate the appropriate approaches for venturing into a new business niche, renewing their overall strategy, or pursuing new goals based on recent industry changes, even those we don’t initially acknowledge.

The Gap Analysis concept compares a company’s current status to a desired future state. By doing so, organizations can identify deficits or areas that require improvement in alignment with the future state. Presenters can work with this metaphorical gap analysis template and express the need for a plan that bridges such a gap.

The next example of a PowerPoint presentation is oriented to the financial area, in which a consultant can refer to an organization’s asset management. By Scope, we imply the extent and boundaries of the asset management activities within an organization. It outlines what will be included in the asset management plan and what will not. On the other hand, Inventory points to a comprehensive and detailed list of all the assets owned by an organization. It includes essential information about each asset to facilitate effective management.

In financial presentations, the information must be clearly arranged so decisions can be made easily. In this case, we observe how a financial dashboard template can represent an organization’s relevant KPIs.

Think about TEDx presentations or Pecha-Kucha . They all have one factor in common: quality graphics to talk about inspirational stories. Graphics can feel overwhelming for some presenters, which ends in picking low-quality pictures or stock images unsuitable for the context of your slide deck. For this reason, we highly recommend you implement vector illustrations into your motivational presentation slides. Easy to customize, they are a valuable asset to mix & match PPT templates and create your custom deck.

Aligning efforts toward a common goal requires a powerful visual communication language. Images are easier to retain than words, so imagine adding a storytelling factor and turning a goal into a mountain to conquer. Presenters can work with this mountain PPT template and signal the different milestones to reach prior to fulfilling a significant goal for the company/organization.

Another take in inspirational presentations is when we need to share our success stories with investors or in networking environments to inspire others. With this roadmap PPT template, presenters can go stage by stage and present the key stages that made them reach their success, or even project for expected goals to achieve.

Academic presentations don’t have to look dull or excessively formal. We can incorporate a sleek layout into our slides and use icons to highlight key points. In this case, we observe a project overview for a research project, and the icons represent the main aspects to cover in this research.

A thesis presentation requires properly introducing the methodology to demonstrate the hypothesis. Rather than adding complex figures, we can work with a minimalistic slide design and briefly describe the research methods. This slide deck is suitable for thesis presentations as well as academic projects, research papers , and more.

As we can see, counting with a professionally designed slide deck makes a difference in how your presentation is perceived by the audience. By working with SlideModel PowerPoint templates, we can reuse and repurpose our slide templates as often as required or mix elements from different slides seen in these PowerPoint presentation examples to create uniquely styled slide decks.

What is a project presentation? 

A project proposal presentation (sometimes known as a project kickoff presentation) provides an overview of an upcoming project. The purpose of the presentation is to update clients, investors, key stakeholders, and team members on your project plans. You’ll discuss changes and improvements delivered by the project and get approval to launch. 

The aim is to get everyone on the same page. Investors and shareholders will understand why you’re running the project, and your project team will understand what they need to do to make it happen. 

Tips for making the perfect project presentation 

Creating a successful and engaging project presentation is easier said than done. Here are some tips to get you on the right track. 

Use a professional template. Save time and create a professional, visually-appealing presentation with a Project Presentation Template. Creating one from scratch will be more time-consuming, and it might not look as striking or professional as a ready-made template. 

Present the problem. Be clear about why you want to launch this project. Is it to solve a customer problem? Or maybe to improve an internal process? Whatever it is, clearly present the problem and show how your project will fix it. 

Clearly communicate your project goals. Everyone needs to know what you want to achieve with your project, so be sure to clearly outline what your goals will be and how you plan to measure them. Take a look at the SMART goals framework to help with this. It’ll also show stakeholders and investors what the project will do for the business (which can help get buy-in and approval to launch). 

Break down your project plan. Show everyone what’s involved in the project by clearly breaking down your project plan. You don’t need to outline every single detail, just the key milestones and the top-level plan. A Scope of Work Template can also help you outline this information. 

Keep slides short. If you go into too much detail in your slides, you risk standing in front of your audience and reading off the screen. To improve your presentation delivery and keep your audience engaged, only include the top-level, necessary information on all your slides. 

Use quality visuals and presentation tools. Give stakeholders, clients, and investors a good impression by using high-quality visual elements to create a clean and professional design. For example, only use high-quality images and keep everything on-brand. Professional presentation tools like Miro will also help you create a well-designed and engaging presentation.

How to create a project presentation with Miro's customizable template 

Use Miro’s digital workspace to organize your thoughts, jot down notes, and share ideas with your project team. When you’re ready to create your presentation, simply select the template and start customizing it to suit your needs. You can add your own color palette, vector icons, and any other graphic elements that you need.  

Our interactive slides (or frames ) can be easily edited. You can add or remove slides and restructure their order in your presentation. All of the slides also have placeholder text, which you can remove to add your own presentation content.

Once you’re ready to present your slides, all you have to do is hop into Presentation Mode . This automatically puts your presentation in fullscreen, and you can move between the slides using the arrow keys.

How do you structure a project presentation? 

Every project presentation is different, so there’s no correct way to structure your presentation . However, there are some common topics that occur in most project presentations: 

High-level information for stakeholders: Your presentation shouldn’t go into too much detail about the specifics of your project. Instead, it should provide top-level information that stakeholders can easily digest — for example, your budget, your return on investment expectation, and your goals. 

Timelines: It’s helpful for your audience to know when you want to start the project and how long it will last. Outline your project timeline so they can see what you plan to do and when you plan to do it (but remember, keep it top-level). 

Deliverables: What will the result be? Tell your audience what your deliverables and outputs will be, so they know what to expect.

Goals: Show your audience how you plan to measure success. As mentioned, take a look at the SMART goals framework to create clear and specific goals.

What do you write in a project presentation?

Your project presentation should outline the top-level information about your upcoming project. This includes the problem you’re trying to solve, your budget, the project timeline, key deliverables, and your goals.

How do you introduce a project presentation?

Start by telling the audience who you are and what the presentation is about. This means summing up your project presentation in a couple of sentences (ideally, you’ll have this prepared beforehand). Show them an agenda so they know what to expect and give a rough timeline for when the presentation will wrap up.

How can I make a perfect presentation?

It’s hard to say how to create the perfect presentation. What’s perfect for you and your audience might not work for someone else, but any successful presentation is engaging, compelling, and convincing. It takes the audience on a journey, building an emotional connection with them along the way. At the end of the presentation, the audience thoroughly understands what the project entails and why it’s important.

Content of this Powerpoint Presentation

Picture this: An entrepreneur presents an innovative project. The concept is exceptional, and the team is in place. However, after six months, the project has gone nowhere, and chaos is the dominant narrative around it. What's the issue? It's often not the idea itself but the internal communication, or the lack of it, that invariably takes the blame. 

That initial clarity is an absolute must. It guides your project's voyage and ensures everyone is not just rowing but rowing together in perfect harmony towards a shared destination. Without it, you might find your resources wasted in a fog of confusion, time wasted in a maze of misdirection, and the project's vision never looking out it will touch base and turn into reality. 

SlideTeam’s Project Brief Summary Templates are the relevant frameworks upon which successful projects are built. They encapsulate objectives, deliverables, and scopes, aligning every team member to the project’s heartbeat. Downloading these 100% editable templates is a decision to gear up for success. It’s about giving your project a starting point and a clear, actionable path forward.

Pro tips to create a successful project management presentation

As you use this template to craft your project management presentation, keep these do’s and don’ts in mind:

There’s a lot to cover in these types of presentations. Use graphics like timelines, scatter plots, or bar graphs to make information more digestible and don’t be afraid to include relevant photos or videos of the product.

Stick to one topic or idea per slide. If you try to add too much content to one slide, you’ll overwhelm your audience. The focus should always be on the project and how it’s being managed.

There’s a lot of work that goes into a new project, so give credit where credit is due. Include a section that highlights the team driving the project forward.

If you need additional slides to compare data, display tables, share pull quotes, or display word clouds, add them to your presentation.

How to make a great Interior Design Presentation?

Interior design presentations are a key document to convince clients to work with you. but crafting a great one can be hard without a proper methodology. in this article, we propose a step by step template showcasing all the essential pages of an interior design presentation..

Creating a beautiful, compelling Interior Design Presentation is one of the most crucial steps for any designer, whether you are pitching ideas to a client, showcasing your portfolio, or finalizing the design for a project.

This presentation allows you to communicate your vision, justify design choices, and ensure that the client feels confident in the proposed plans. It’s the key step before starting to create or renovate a space.

Building a well-structured, appealing presentation is a way to set you apart from other Interior Designers and make clients choose you instead of someone else.

An Interior Design Presentation will serve two main purposes:

• For your Clients: Help them visualize the outcome before any construction/renovation work begins.
• For You: Structure and organize your work, ensuring that your design is coherent, and serving as a source of truth for the construction/renovation.

So, what makes an excellent Interior Design Presentation ? In this complete guide, we show all the essential pages to include, from the initial mood board to the final budget.

To make things easier for you, we built a free Interior Design Presentation Template that you can customize as you like.

Interior Design Presentation - What pages to include?

An Interior Design Presentation is composed of 13 essential sections 👇

• Table of Contents
• Furniture Selection
• Concept / Mood Board
• Material & Finishes
• Furniture Plan
• Lighting Plan
• Millwork Details
• Project Timeline

Depending on the project you are working on, that might differs slightly, but this basis ensure you’re not missing any big part of an interior design project.

Let’s dive into each of them!

1. Cover Page

The cover page is your first opportunity to make a great impression. This page includes:

• The project name (eg. "Kitchen and Dining Room Design ")
• Your branding: name of your studio, logo, website etc.
• The date of the presentation.
• The name of your client.

Keep it simple, clean, and professional. A polished cover page sets the tone for the rest of the presentation and gives it a professional touch.

2. Table of Contents

The Table of Contents helps guide your client through the presentation. This page is especially useful for large projects where you cover various aspects such as floor plans , material finishes , and renderings .

If you’re using a digital format (eg. PDF or an online visualizer), include links to pages to allow easy navigation.

3. Floor Plan

The Floor Plan page is one of the most important elements of any interior design presentation. It includes the layout of the space , showing the structure, walls, windows, doors , and key architectural features. Make sure the floor plan is clear and easy to understand, as it serves as the foundation for the entire design. At this step, adjustments can be made based on your client’s requirements and preferences.

• What to include: Dimensions, surfaces of each room, furniture placement, and notations for key design elements.
• Purpose: Give clients a clear visual of the spatial layout and how the different design elements fit together.
• Floor Plan example: Below is an example of a Villa Floor Plan you can use as an inspiration.

You can also find more Floor Plan templates in this article .

4. Furniture Selection

The Furniture Selection page highlights the specific pieces of furniture you will be using in the project. Provide detailed information about each item, including product images , model numbers , quantities , supplier details , and costs . Clients often appreciate seeing the exact furniture they can expect in their space. A furniture table format , with the visual of each furniture piece and columns, is well suited for this section.

• What to include: Images of selected pieces, name, quantity, supplier, color & size, furniture dimensions, lead time, and total pricing.
• Purpose: To help the client visualize the complete list of furniture and understand the budget allocation for each item.

5. Mood Board / Concept

This is where you share the overall aesthetic vision. The Mood Board page showcases the textures, colors, and materials that will be used in the project. It also includes inspirational photos or materials (like fabric, metal, or stone) that align with the design concept. Clients like this page, because it showcases clear visuals of their future interiors and helps them for projection.

• What to include: Textures, furniture, color swatches, and images that match the overall theme.
• Purpose: To give the client an early-stage feel of how all elements will come together aesthetically.
• Mood Board example: Here’s a simple example of a Mood Board for a NYC apartment designed in Rayon (access this Mood Board here ).

You can also read this article to discover more about how to create a Mood Board.

6. Material & Finishes

This section gets into the details of what materials will be used for various elements such as walls, flooring, and countertops. For example, you can show the exact types of wood , granite , or fabric for specific spaces. It provides clarity on what the client can expect in terms of the finish and quality.

• What to include: High-resolution images of materials and their use in specific areas of the project (e.g., kitchen, dining room).
• Purpose: To make it easy for the client to visualize textures and finishes, allowing them to make informed choices.

7. Furniture Plan

The Furniture Plan page is a continuation of the layout provided in the Floor Plan section, this time focusing specifically on the furniture. It provides a clear vision of how the furniture pieces will be arranged in the space.

• What to include: The arrangement of key furniture pieces, dimensions, and distances between pieces for better spatial understanding.
• Purpose: To help the client visualize the flow and organization of the furniture within the space.
• Furniture library example: Use Rayon’s library of 3,000+ pre-drawn blocks to add pieces of furniture to your floor plan.

8. Elevations

Elevations provide a side-on view of the interior spaces, showing how furniture, lighting, and design elements align vertically in the room. This is especially useful for showing wall treatments , cabinetry , and window treatments .

• What to include: 2D drawings of walls, showing the placement of decor elements like artwork, lighting fixtures, and window treatments.
• Purpose: To offer a detailed view of vertical space, helping clients understand how everything fits together.
• Elevations example: Below you can see elevations made for a Master Bedroom interior design. You can access this drawing here .

9. Lighting Plan

Lighting is crucial in any interior design project. The Lighting Plan page showcases the types of lighting used in each area of the project, whether it’s ambient lighting, task lighting, or accent lighting. Including details such as fixture types and their placement is essential.

• What to Include: A detailed plan showing all light sources (ceiling lights, wall-mounted lights, etc.) and their positions.
• Purpose: To show how the lighting will enhance the ambiance and functionality of the space.

10. Millwork Details

The Millwork Details page offers precise, technical drawings of any custom-built elements, such as cabinetry or shelving . If the project includes bespoke elements, this page is where you get into the finer details of design.

• What to include: Detailed technical drawings of custom elements.
• Purpose: Give your clients a clear understanding of how custom elements will look and function in the space. As it’s a technical drawing, it’s also a way to demonstrate your drawing skills.
• Millwork details template: This Bedroom Millwork template gives you a sense of what is expected for such drawings.

11. Project Timeline

The Project Timeline page outlines the different stages of the project, from the initial concept to the final installation. It helps manage client expectations, showing when key milestones will be achieved and when the project will be completed. A chronologic line, with dates assigned to each key milestone, helps clients visualize the big steps of the project.

• What to include: Phases like planning , evaluating , launching , and monitoring , with specific dates.
• Purpose: To provide clarity on timelines and milestones.

The Budget page is essential for helping clients understand the total cost of their project, as well as the breakdown of each element. It includes line items for materials, furniture, labor, and any custom work. Providing a well-organized budget helps clients stay informed and reduces misunderstandings about costs.

• What to include: Breakdown of all expenses including materials , furniture , lighting fixtures , labor , etc.
• Purpose: To ensure the client understands the cost structure and is aligned with the financials of the project.

13. Renders

3D Renders are photorealistic visuals of the space, showing exactly how it will look once completed. Including high-quality renders in your presentation helps clients feel more confident in the design and enables them to provide feedback before work begins.

• What to include: High-quality, detailed renderings of the main areas of the project.
• Purpose: To allow clients to visualize the final space with accuracy and confidence.

The world of business is at the crossroads of several pivotal developments. The pandemic changed the way we see work— remote and hybrid models became mainstream . Artificial intelligence has reached a practical level of maturity with GenAI . Technology has become an even more integral part of businesses . 

As a result, organizations across the globe are in a state of constant digital transformation . It’s no wonder that the digital transformation market is projected to reach $4907 billion by 2030 . 

Yet, it’s important to note that digital transformation is not just about adopting new technologies. It represents a fundamental change in the role technology plays in business. It’s an organizational transformation that demands the reimagining of business operations, streamlining processes, and changing behaviors to deliver value in the marketplace.

The People Process Technology (PPT) framework is designed to enable exactly that. PPT takes a holistic approach to digital transformation, going beyond technology. In fact, in PPT, tech comes last!

If you’re curious about how the PPT model can help you achieve your strategic digital transformation goals, read on.

What Is the People, Process, and Technology Framework?

1. map your people, process, and technology landscape, 2. have a clear vision, 3. make a balanced resource allocation plan, 4. prepare to manage change, 5. communicate. communicate. communicate, 6. plan for upstream/downstream effects, 7. observe and adapt.

The People, Process, Technology (PPT) framework is a model for assessing and improving organizational effectiveness. It focuses on three key elements.

🧑🏻 People: The human resources within your organization, including employees, contractors, and stakeholders. This part of the framework emphasizes skills, knowledge, roles, responsibilities, and culture.

➡️ Process: Workflows, procedures, and methods you use to run the businesses. This includes the formal and informal processes, ranging from leave application to quality control.  

🛠️ Technology: The tools, systems, and infrastructure that support successful business operations. This includes software, hardware, and other technical resources.

Though digital transformation gained ground in the 2000s, the PPT framework has its history in management psychologist Harold Leavitt’s model from 1965. Leavitt’s Diamond model focused on four key components: people, tasks, structure, and technology. 

According to Leavitt, these elements are interconnected, and changes in one area will inevitably impact the others . Over time, the Diamond model evolved, with the “structure” and “tasks” components being reinterpreted or merged into what we now refer to as “processes.”

This shift reflected a growing recognition of the need to formalize and optimize workflows as technology became more integrated into business practices. This is especially true when it comes to an organization’s digital transformation strategy .

Remember that the people process technology framework is about more than these three elements alone; it is also about their interconnectedness and interactions . 

For instance, it is not just about the project management tool the organization pays for but also how the teams use it and how it shapes their performance.

We’ll explore that next.

The Interplay of People, Process, Technology in Businesses

Uber, the world’s largest taxi company, owns no vehicles. Facebook, the world’s most popular media owner, creates no content. Alibaba, the most valuable retailer, has no inventory. And Airbnb, the world’s largest accommodation provider, owns no real estate. Something interesting is happening.

This change in the business world also creates a new interplay between the aspects of people, processes, and technology. Here’s how.

People are the heart of any digital transformation initiative . Their knowledge, skills, creativity, passion, and leadership execute and sustain the change. 

Their ability to follow processes can lead to efficiencies, speed, consistency, and compliance. On the other hand, if they are reluctant to use technology, they might miss out on easier, faster, more convenient ways to work. 

Engaged employees understand the intent of the process and follow it judiciously. They are better equipped to leverage technology effectively, leading to a more agile and responsive organization.

Processes refer to the way the people in an organization execute change. It encompasses workflows, procedures, and methods followed by the people. This could be anything from dealing with an agitated customer to writing thoughtful responses to letters from seven-year-olds .

Well-designed processes ensure that operations are efficient, scalable, and aligned with the company’s strategic goals. They help people deliver consistent work, often reducing decision fatigue. They also help technology teams standardize and automate processes to improve productivity.

Technology includes the tools, systems, and infrastructure used in the organization. This could be anything from software and hardware to data management systems and communication platforms.

The technology we use shapes the way we think . When all you see is a spreadsheet, you’re bound to think in rows and columns. By choosing the right technology, you can either empower or hinder employee performance. Likewise, you can also improve or complicate processes.

Every day, people, processes, and technology interact with each other in myriad ways. What we know is that an optimal interaction of the three can create extraordinary outcomes. 

Let’s see how you can facilitate that.

Implementing the PPT Framework in the Real World

The simplicity of the PPT framework can often mask its intricate fabric. Any organization would be amiss to ignore the dozens, if not hundreds, of ways the three elements interact and impact one other.

Leveraging the PPT framework as part of any project management or digital transformation strategy needs a considered approach. Here’s a step-by-step guide using a project management system like ClickUp .

If that seems like a humungous task, it is. So, begin by outlining the scope of your project. For example, as part of your digital transformation initiative, if you’re implementing a testing automation tool, here’s what you could do:

People : Think about all the stakeholders of the tool, not just its direct users. This could include business analysts, developers, DevOps, customer service teams, etc.

Process : Map the current testing processes you’re following. Identify gaps and critical junctures.

Technology : While testing automation is a whole new tool you don’t yet have, think of all the tech you use in the process. You might be using a bug-tracking system, for instance. Or just listing defects in a spreadsheet. Audit all of them, even if they seem tangential.

Use a process mapping tool like ClickUp Whiteboards to make this visual and collaborative. Bring various stakeholders on the same page, discuss elements, leave comments, address concerns, and take action, all in one place.

The PPT framework in action: Apple’s integrated PPT ecosystem

Apple’s exemplary product development process demonstrates the deft interplay between people, processes, and technology. As a philosophy, Apple tightly integrates hardware, software, and services for better quality control and UX.

To achieve this, they hire top engineering talent, cultivate a culture of design excellence, and invest in advanced manufacturing techniques, creating a seamless ecosystem within the organization. 

For your digital transformation project, have a clear vision. Set specific business objectives and success metrics for each of the three elements: people, process, and technology.

Document your vision as a handbook or a project charter with ClickUp Docs . Leverage the AI capabilities of ClickUp Brain to summarize it, create tasks, notify users, etc.

Successful transformation requires balanced investment across people, processes, and technology. Allocate resources thoughtfully, avoiding over-investment in one area at the expense of others, as the consequences can be catastrophic.

🚫 Overemphasis on technology : Prioritizing technology over people and processes can lead to complex systems that employees are not very fond of using or processes that do not align with the technology.

This can result in underutilized tools, staff resistance, and ultimately, a poor return on investment. 

For instance, if you implement a complex customer relationship management (CRM) tool and your sales teams hate it, forcing them to use it will not produce the results you seek.

To avoid this, invest in training your employees on any new technology you implement. Align technology with the actual needs and capabilities of the organization’s workforce.

🚫 Overemphasis on people : Focusing heavily on the people aspect without corresponding attention to processes and technology can result in inconsistent outcomes, inefficiencies, and a lack of scalability. Employees might create processes that are convenient to only them or perform too many manual tasks, leading to burnout.

Avoid this by balancing the focus on people with well-defined processes and the right technology tools that help achieve organizational efficiency and consistency. 

For instance, use ClickUp Automations to reduce manual workloads and time spent on routine, mechanical tasks.

🚫 Overemphasis on process : Focusing disproportionately on processes can lead to rigidity, where employees feel constrained instead of empowered. Processes that are overly complex or unsupported by the right technology can create frustration.

So, review and update processes regularly to ensure they are flexible and aligned with people’s capabilities and technological advancements. Use process improvement templates to determine where there is room for improvement and execute accordingly. Actively seek employee feedback to refine processes.

🚫 Underinvestment in any one area : Neglecting any aspect of the PPT framework can lead to a breakdown of the entire system.

For example, underinvestment in technology can lead to outdated tools, while underinvestment in people can result in a skills gap.

Maintain a balanced approach by regularly assessing and adjusting investments in all three areas. This doesn’t mean you must give all equal importance. 

Based on maturity, needs, budgets, culture, etc., one element might need more attention than the other. Ensure each element receives the necessary resources and attention to support the others effectively.

🚫 Lack of integration across PPT elements : If you don’t integrate people, processes, and technology effectively, it can result in disjointed operations, communication failures, and a lack of alignment with your objectives . This fragmentation can slow down decision-making and reduce overall effectiveness.

Foster meaningful integration by encouraging cross-functional collaboration. Ensure that changes in one area (e.g., technology upgrades) are communicated and aligned with processes and people. Use regular reviews to assess how well-integrated these elements are and make adjustments as needed.

To protect yourself from being swayed by the tides of the project, create a plan upfront.

ClickUp’s Digital Transformation Strategy and Plan Template can be incredibly useful here. This beginner-friendly template helps you map out your goals, break them into manageable action items, and track progress toward successful implementation.

Digital transformation projects are, in essence, about change. Even the best-intentioned changes are disruptive. So, a certain amount of resistance from team members is natural. Create a robust change management strategy to get ahead of this.

✅ Educate : Invest in knowledge management. Create a comprehensive change management guide before changing existing processes. Prepare, support, and guide individuals and teams through the transformation.

✅ Enable : Use change management software to involve stakeholders early in the process. Offer training and support, explain the next steps, and encourage them to actively adopt the new digital technology solutions. 

✅ Operationalize : Based on your experience, create change management templates that can be applied to future projects or other teams.

The PPT framework in action: Netflix’s effective change management strategy

Netflix’s change management strategy during its transition to streaming is a great example. The company invested in ensuring their teams had the skills and mindset to support the move from DVD rentals to streaming.

They re-engineered their content delivery processes, streaming experience, and content recommendation algorithms and created a culture of data-driven decision-making. 

As a result, Netflix pioneered a whole new way of media consumption and successfully transformed itself into the world’s leading streaming service.

When implementing digital transformation projects, communicating once initially is not enough. You need to maintain ongoing conversations with every stakeholder to reiterate the purpose, foster alignment, and improve adoption . 

Enable real-time collaboration software like ClickUp Chat to facilitate asynchronous conversations. This not only eliminates the need for meetings/disruptions but also enables a common forum for team members to collaborate effortlessly.

The success of the PPT Framework lies in treating people, processes, and technology as interconnected elements. This means that any change you make to one will most certainly impact the other two.

• Identify dependencies and connections
• Measure the level of impact
• Prepare to mitigate any risks or points of failure

Implementing a structured business process management strategy can help you prepare for upstream/downstream impact. Check out these business process management examples to stroke inspiration.

Digital transformation isn’t a one-and-done thing, especially not in a world where technology is evolving so rapidly. Use the PPT framework as an evolving system. Review and refine the framework as you gain more information. 

Foster a culture of continuous improvement, actively address feedback, and optimize all aspects of the business.

The PPT framework in action: Toyota and Kaizen

Toyota’s culture of continuous improvement (Kaizen) is a standout example.
