Pyramid Framework for Structured Presentations PPT

This PPT slide, part of the 59-slide How to Develop a Logically Structured Presentation PowerPoint presentation, illustrates a structured approach to presenting information using a pyramid framework. It emphasizes the importance of a vertical Q&A dialogue with the reader, where the governing thought, key line, and supporting details are clearly defined. The pyramid structure is designed to facilitate a logical flow of information, encouraging the audience to engage with the content through a series of questions.

At the top of the pyramid is the "Governing Thought," which serves as the central idea or thesis of the presentation. Below this, the "Key Line" acts as a bridge, connecting the main concept to the supporting arguments. The "Support" section contains detailed points that substantiate the key line, arranged horizontally to provide clarity and coherence.

The slide distinguishes between 2 types of logic: vertical and horizontal. Vertical logic creates a dynamic Q&A interaction, prompting the audience to think critically about the information presented. It raises questions such as "Why?" "How?" and "How do you know?" until no further inquiries arise. This method ensures that the audience is not just passively receiving information, but actively engaging with it.

Horizontal logic, on the other hand, focuses on answering the questions raised by the vertical dialogue. It employs inductive reasoning to logically address these inquiries, ensuring that the presentation remains structured and comprehensible. This dual approach enhances the effectiveness of communication, making it easier for the audience to follow and retain the key messages. Overall, this slide serves as a valuable guide for anyone looking to develop a logically structured presentation.
