Presentation Instructions

1. Presentation Instructions When using this presentation template, here are a few things to consider: • These are examples, and you should input your specific project information where applicable. With PowerPoint, you can copy these slides into your PPT format and they will take on the overall design and color scheme that you would use for any other presentation. • These pages are set up to show all the phases, but depending on the timing of your presentation, you will use only those pages that apply based on where you are in the DMAIC cycle • You may wish to add other pages, such as more graphs or maps; however, keep the overall number of pages to a minimum, and don’t forget, you can always add more detail in the appendix to use as back-up, if you need them. • There are a couple of different ways to show next steps depending on your preferences and data; use at least one method at each presentation. • You should have a project plan that you can update and present at each formal presentation. • The best presentations have these components; • Introduce the team, giving credit to everyone involved • Current status • Key findings/concerns (bullet points and/or graphs) • Next steps
