How do I go about doing that?
Big walls of text on slides or screens are off-putting for most people. That’s especially true when it comes to someone who deals with a learning disability like dyslexia. Expecting anyone to read through large blocks of text as they’re also trying to pay attention to what you are saying as the speaker, especially from a distance, is unrealistic at best! As an audience member, ask yourself; would you be willing to read all those words on a slide during a live, in-person or virtual event? Or would you rather listen to an engaging story making the same points? You, of all people, need to recognize the power of storytelling. Make it a point to replace words with strong, compelling visuals. Come up with engaging ways to convey the same information through stories instead. Your message will reach a lot more people, and is much more powerful ways.
