Set up your Adobe Connect Meeting Room. You will be recording your presentation in your Adobe Connect meeting room and including a link to the recorded file in the assessment submission comment box and in your document. Links to the Adobe Connect Tutorials can be found in the Resources section of this assessment.
Step One: Create PowerPoint Presentation
When preparing the information for your presentation, focus on the conceptual level to make sure you are on target and aligned with strategic goals. Remember, CEOs expect presentations to be brief, substantive, and concise.
Design for your Audience: If your organization has “branding standards,” use them. You are expected to follow generally recognized guidelines for professional presentations. Spare your audience from a “death by PowerPoint” experience. Consult the suggested resources to remind yourself of the do’s and don’ts of effective presentations.
Address the following points in your briefing:
Describe at least five objectives, with your corresponding metrics, targets, and initiatives, to help the organization achieve the strategic direction you have designed.
Present your operational recommendations and strategic control mechanisms.
Include the strategic goals, objectives, and action steps for reconfiguring and aligning the organization’s structure, systems, shared values, management style, staff, and skills.
Include critical success indicators that the organization can use to measure its performance in implementing the strategy.
Evaluate the effect of your strategy formulation, weighing factors of measurement against current measurement benchmarks in the organization.
Presentation Structure
