Manager Wanted
The new manager will be responsible for overseeing and leading the work of a group of people. The manager will also be responsible for planning and maintaining work systems, procedures, and policies that enable and encourage the optimum performance of our people and other resources within related business units.
Leading people is usually part of the description of what a manager does. But, he or she is also responsible for leadership over a segment of work, a sub-section of the organisation’s results, or a functional area within an organisation with or without reporting staff. If a manager has no reporting staff members, the Human Resources segments of this job description may be eliminated or narrowed.

Open a PowerPoint or Slide program and create a four slide PowerPoint. Select your own style from the templates provided and include the following information:

2. An opening statement for your PowerPoint
3. An information page
4. A closing page
The topic can be anything of your choice. To access PowerPoint in Windows, click on ‘All Programs’, click on ‘Microsoft Office’, click on ‘Microsoft PowerPoint’ and templates should be displayed for a new presentation. When completed, save your PowerPoint file as ‘Exercise 3 Activity 8’.
