I’d be really interested in a tutorial on the anatomy of a slide. I often struggle to understand what "looks good" since I don’t naturally have an eye for design. If you could break down what makes a slide visually effective, that would be incredibly helpful. A follow-up tutorial on creating an impactful deck could build on that foundation.
Before that, though, I’d love to learn more about your thinking process and prework before even starting a presentation. How do you determine what’s important and what isn’t? Understanding your approach to structuring content before designing slides would be really insightful.
Regarding CVs, I know it’s tricky to account for country-specific nuances, but it would be valuable to learn about key principles, like highlighting proven successes—especially when they aren’t explicitly written in a work certificate/reference letter.
It would also be great to explore how employees can identify and showcase the valuable skills they’ve gained in their current roles. Additionally, guidance on what projects or work items they should seek out to strengthen their CVs would be extremely useful!
Thanks @manuel, glad you like it. I really appreciate the feedback. Thank you.
These things are all on the list … I just need to find time between work and life :)
One tip: I think collecting and highlighting your achievements should be very similar for your Performance reviews as your CVs. I have a “formula” for both but it’s similar… and the reason is it drives you to create a meaningful CV everyday … not years apart when you need it for a new job opportunity. More about this in 2025
Hey Marc,
Awesome contribution with your template deck!
