The MGMT 620 Week 8 method, step by step
Plan the talk before the slides
Decide what the audience should know or do at the end, and outline the talk around that. The slides come last.
One idea per slide
Give each slide a headline that states its point and keep the text short. The detail belongs in what you say or in the speaker notes.
Put the evidence where it is used
Cite sources on the slides where you use them and list them on a references slide (At least 5 additional resources, trade books, articles, case studies or online resources).
Write speaker notes or a script
Script the talk slide by slide. If the guide asks for voiceover or notes, the analysis lives there.
Rehearse to the time limit
Do one timed run before the final recording and trim to fit the limit.
Check the technical requirements
Confirm the format the guide asks for (A 1-page summary and at least 20 slides): slide count, length, audio and visual, and the file or link type Canvas accepts.
Write the 1-page summary first (audience, objectives, outline, duration), then build at least 20 slides following it, with activities such as a mini after-action review. Cite the 5 additional resources on the slides where used.

A topic angle that works
Design training for project teams on how to capture, store and actually use lessons learned, which Thomas notes many organizations collect but rarely apply.
Model paragraph with notes
An original paragraph written by our desk to show the register that earns full rubric credit. It is study material: learn the moves, then write your own.
Slide 9: Make lessons usable. Write each lesson as a recommendation, not a complaint: instead of "procurement was slow," write "order long-lead items at contract signing." Tag each lesson by project phase and type. Review relevant lessons at the kickoff of every new project, so learning reaches the next team.
