Assignment 8: Slide Deck w/Video: Inspire the Business Leader of the 21st Century

Instructions

As the CEO of your company, you want to prepare your company’s emerging young leaders for the future.

Submit a presentation – showing slides and with your camera on (I WILL DO THE VIDEO RECORDING, PLEASE INCLUDE THE TALKING POINTS FOR EACH SLIDE IN THE NOTES SECTION) – on the type of leaders they need to be to succeed in the 21st century.

<< Talk as a leader speaking to the future leadership of your company. >>

Consider all the various concepts that have been discussed during class and the impact that leadership has on each one.

Be sure your presentation includes:

• Title page

• How would you define the 21st century business leader?

• What type of characteristics will those new leaders have?

• What impact will leadership have on the development of business structures and models?

• How will 21st century leaders handle ethical, legal, and social responsibilities and diversity and inclusion?

• How will leaders view the role and responsibility of teams?

• What new ways of using technology could these leaders embrace?

• How could new emerging business trends affect the future of leadership?

• Reference page

Submit the Presentation with Your Camera On, talking through the slides.

Length: 5-7 slides, excluding title and reference pages.

References: Include a minimum of 3 scholarly resources.

Best Practices for Recorded Presentations

• Avoid complete sentences on slides; It will be easier for your audience to capture and remember your ideas with short phrases after bullets

• Use more graphics.

• To keep your listeners engaged:

o sound enthusiastic

o use inflection in your voice

o utilize strategic pauses to highlight key points

• Always begin and end a presentation with the “why” – what is the benefit of this presentation for your audience?

• Place references at the bottom of the slide where it was referenced in smaller text

• Use professional language (i.e. do not say “guys”, say “you all”

• Don’t begin with “Good afternoon.” You do not know when they will be viewing it.
