Tell them three times

I'm reminded of the quote "tell them what you're going to tell them, tell it to them, then tell them what you've told them". At first, that doesn't sound flattering but in practise it's a good philosophy - an overview introduction, a detailed middle, and an overview conclusion ... and I'll be using it in a presentation that I've got at lunchtime tomorrow.

Speaking with Dad yesterday, he was thinking that the quote originally came from IBM; I don't doubt that he's right on that.
