Title Slides
Your audience needs to know who you are and what you are going to talk about.
Give your presentation an opening slide showing the title of your presentation, your name and position or job title.
Keep it simple. Your audience is far more likely to be distracted at the start of the presentation, when they are still settling down. Job titles should be kept to a single phrase - ‘Managing Director’ or ‘Events Manager’ - and qualifications used only if they are strictly relevant to your audience or presentation.
Your closing slide should mirror the opening one, showing the title of the presentation and any contact details, if those are relevant.
You can duplicate blank title slides, either by holding down Ctrl and click-dragging into the desired position in Slide Sorter mode (View - Slide Sorter), or by using Insert - New Slide - Title Slide.
