The Pop!Tech Fellows worked with the Duarte team on crafting there messages into compelling, easy to understand (and remember) presentations.
Head Designer, Eric--a recovering engineer--took the group through several rounds of understanding and application of the principles described in Nancy Duarte's book slide:ology.
An alum of the 2008 Fellows program, Abby Falik of Global Citizen Year (@Globalcitizenyr), was chosen as an example of effective presenting on behalf of a social enterprise. She pulled off a flawless Pop!Tech presentation (video), put together in 2 hours after working with Duarte.

As a professional service firm based in California, Duarte converts cluttered, heinously-colored presentations and converts them into effective storytelling devices that address both the analytical and the creative sides of the brain. Each Fellow is at the heart of a social venture that requires them to present, motivate and activate an audience into action. This may take the form of donations, connections, capacity, volunteers, business opportunities, and more.
