Face to face? Hmmm...now that's definitely a way to waste time and money...I think we'll find it will all go the other way...remote employees and online meetings...then powerpoints are absolutely necessary...people need something to focus on IMHO...people will tune out regardless...so you just have a very good reason to have the meeting then be compelling in your delivery...ask yourself...do I really need to have a meeting...

I agree with most of the other comments here as well...
