Abstract
How many times have you seen a presenter project a title slide and then quickly remove it before you had the chance to fathom what the presentation was really about? Or how many times have you had a presenter overwhelm you with an outline list of presentation topics, more than half of which you were unable to remember not one minute after this mapping slide had been removed? Such are the trademarks of presentations in which the presenter leaves the audience behind at the beginning.
