What is a Pecha Kucha presentation?
Pecha Kucha, which means ‘chit chat’ in Japanese, is an informal presentation.. Each presenter speaks over 20 highly pictorial slides, each presented for exactly 20 seconds. Having less than seven minutes to make your point forces a tight focus, which is a useful business skill. Practise your presentation, keeping in mind that you need to inform via pictures, not lots of text.
