Workplaces that enable positivity give employees access to the essential elements of well-being: positive emotion, positive relationships, purpose and meaning, positive accomplishment, and positive health. These elements, taken together, create individual and collective flourishing. When the conditions for well-being are present in the workplace, everybody—employer, employees, external stakeholders, and the wider society—benefits.

If you’re in management, you are almost certainly making presentations routinely. It’s easy, but incorrect, to think of your presentation as a bunch of bulleted lists in Powerpoint slides. Technical managers, in particular, are notorious for conceiving of their presentations in this way. The truth is that every presentation you create and deliver is an opportunity for you to communicate your message, persuade your audience and get the action you require as a response. So how do you go about creating presentations that accomplish this?
