Greetings,

I'm new to this Group; I'm a professor of business communication at
USC in Los Angeles. I am seeing more and more in the workplace that
the "traditional" written report is being abandoned for a printed
version of the PPT slides used in the oral presentation. The better
PPT printed reports (Annotated PPT Report) will include a cover page
more like a traditional written report and the PPT slides (usually one
per page) with the annotated notes below each slide written as a
coherent (in terms of story that flows) narrative of the entire oral
presentation. I am seeking any information, article, chapter in book
(or section), Web blog, etc., that would include some information
about best practices for this "Annotated PPT Report"; or a "How To"
guide. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Jim
 
Do you need advice on the mechanics of producing the report using
PowerPoint or are you looking for something else?

Thanks for replying. Not so much about the mechanics, more about "best
practices" for overall format, writing style and content
considerations for the annotation boxes, and feedback about what
worked and what didn't in terms of clients' reactions to the Annotated
PPT Written Report.
