Exam Content
This is an
individual assignment that was constructed by UOP. It has been a part of this class for years and works well with students who can apply all the knowledge from the class.
*Per requirements, you must have a reference slide and all references will be in your speaking notes (in-text) or on slides with a low Safe Assign number.
****Just to make sure. You will submit your final work for grading. I am required to give you feedback. It is understand that your final version you submit is not a draft and
cannot be edited and resubmitted. It is the final version. Make it your best and shine.
Your Role
You are a leader in a global organization and have been asked to make a presentation to the board of directors about the importance of a diversity-conscious organization.
Create an 8- to 10-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation, including the reference slide and cite all references in your speech. The speaking portion will need to be substantial.
You will submit two items:
1. PowerPoint in PowerPoint and not a PDF.
2. Word Doc with your speaker’s notes. These are your complete notes of everything you would say in an actual presentation including all references.
The
reason why I ask for the speaking notes to be submitted as a Word Doc is that once the gradebook was down I could not download any PowerPoint Presentations to see the notes. I had to message each person.
This is the same formatting as the Team PowerPoint (PP).
**For easiest viewing please submit your
PP in PowerPoint and not as a PDF.
A well designed PowerPoint and organization will have:
· A background with font that is easy to view and does not overwhelm your message.
· It will be consistent with similarities such as bullet points and an image. It won’t look disjointed but one well toned message the audience can follow.
· Think of the nonverbal communication that is sent with certain colors, images, etc.
· Have a distinct introduction with points. Today I will discuss the importance of a diversity lead company, will define and leave with some possible next steps.
· Will guide your listener with transitions. ‘Which leads me to my next point of ….”
· Substantial and in-depth speaker’s notes.
· Use of citations. ‘According the the great Dr. Who (2021) diversity is more important today than ever.’
·
Make your PowerPoint design easy to view, read and understand.
Colors and images send messages to your audience.
What might be some good soothing, professional background colors that are easy to look at?
What are good color combinations that allow for your audience to read the text on your slides?
What are good images that express your message yet do not overrun the presentation?
What about the impact of graphics with citing of source?
**Most importantly, it needs to be readable.
You may address these in your presentation:
· The characteristics of diversity-conscious leaders
· How technological changes influence diversity in leadership
· How to improve diversity consciousness within the workplace (
Note: Offer specific steps/strategies for improvement.)
·
Your PowerPoint (PP) will include:
· Title slide – Come up with a good title.
· On the first slide – welcome your audience.
· Introduction slide with the 3 or 4 points.
· Body of your PP which offers more information on the 3 or 4 points including references.
· You will include research to substantiate your points.
· At least 5 images or graphics.
· At least 3 scholarly or credible sources cited both in-text and on a separate slide in APA formatting.
·
Speaker’s notes which will make up much of the content your PP. It is worth 30%. They will be one to two paragraphs or more and include your references.
· Voiceover is optional but recommended.
·
Format your assignment according to appropriate course-level APA guidelines.
Submit your assignment.
