In consulting it’s typical that consultants draw the layout of their sides on paper and send it to a center specialized on PowerPoint to produce it. Or they dummy it in PowerPoint and the specialists take it from there. For Word, at least my firm blocks most of the layouting stuff so that you can only use the official styles. Works for me
- hectormalot 9y agoWe probably work for the same firm. I think it works well for basic formatting, but information transfer already becomes time intensive when you’re looking to create something high-end (eg where Message and conceptual design are closely linked) That said, yes, I see many clients spend significant chunks of their time on creating the ppt compared to how long they need to write down their ideas on paper. (And off topic: the other major corporate timesink i see is time spent in meetings, often because it’s unclear who has the mandate to make decisions, and as a result everyone gets invited)
