“We should put together a PowerPoint presentation of 10–15 slides with title and reference slides,” says Sara. “We should include speaker notes of about 800–1,200 words, as well.”

“The presentation should include the project human resource management information that we shared in our team discussion,” you say.

“Oh, that’s great!” says Jim, “Do you think you can prepare the presentation for the team?”
