Week 6 Assignment – PowerPoint Presentation

Develop a PowerPoint presentation of 12–18 slides including a title slide, an agenda slide, body content slides, a conclusion slide, and a Sources slide if applicable. All slides count toward the required length.

The content should focus on some aspect of social media use in the workplace, such as the importance of companies embracing social media, advertising through social media, establishing policies involving social media, or communicating properly and professionally through social media platforms. Identify your audience within the professional workplace (management, tech team, etc.), and assume your target audience is familiar with the overall concept of social media. As you develop your presentation, refer to the general design requirements found in Chapter 12 (pages 206–229) of your BCOM 10th edition textbook.

The presentation must be submitted in .PPT or .PPTX format. Any other submission formats will be returned ungraded. Incorrectly formatted file submissions may be corrected and resubmitted for late credit. Focus on clarity and writing mechanics and professional language and style requirements.
