# Introduction Slide Examples: Titles That Set Context

An introduction slide should tell people what they are about to see and why it matters to them. A title alone may identify the topic, but a subtitle can establish the audience, scope and decision. Keep the opening specific enough that it could not be pasted onto any other presentation.

## Choose the workflow

1. **Write the title and the promise**

   Use a concrete subject plus the purpose. “Customer intake trial” with “A decision on a two-week pilot” gives more context than “Innovation for tomorrow.” Do not turn an untested proposal into a result headline.

   ____________________

2. **Add only useful identifiers**

   Include the presenter, organization, date or version when they help the audience place the work. For research, identify the study and venue; for a client proposal, identify the client and discussion stage. Avoid publishing private contact details on a public deck.

   ____________________

3. **Connect the first slide to the first minute**

   Say what decision or understanding the audience should leave with, then show the route. A short agenda belongs after the title when the talk needs one. Do not read a dense biography before explaining the audience’s problem.

   ____________________

## Worked example

Three fictional openings: Proposal — “A simpler intake process” / “Decision brief for a two-week pilot.” Research — “Comparing two annotation methods” / “Study design, findings and limitations for the lab meeting.” Training — “Handle an incomplete support request” / “A practical workflow with two exercises.” In each case, the second slide should develop that promise: decision criteria, research question or the scenario the learner will practice. These examples are writing patterns, not claims of completed projects.

## Adapt this prompt

Write five title-and-subtitle pairs for [topic] presented to [audience]. Purpose: [decision or learning outcome]. Evidence status: [proposal, preliminary findings or final findings]. Keep titles concrete, avoid exaggerated results and include a suggested first spoken sentence. Recommend the clearest option and explain its fit.

## Check before sharing

- [ ] The opening names a specific subject and audience purpose.
- [ ] The title does not promise a result the deck cannot support.
- [ ] Presenter details, version and confidential labels are correct and readable.

## A mistake to avoid

A crowded cover makes people work before the talk begins. Remove decorative slogans, redundant logos and paragraphs; keep supporting context for the next slide.
