Here are more great examples of telling stories; again, note the lack of Powerpoint.

Story-telling Master Class with Ira Glass
The following is a wonderful tribute to the second S in Made to Stick - stories. Ira Glass, producer and host of This American Life, arguably the best program on the radio today, explores in an almost tender manner the art of creating and telling a story. The GEL conference has other good speakers (some are hit or miss) - this one is a definite hit. Watch when you have time (actually you do not really have to watch you can just listen, Glass is a radio guy). It will require some thought on how to implement. Let us know how you incorporate any of this in your presentations.
GEL conference site does not have the video anymore but this blog has a back up video with some background information on GEL.
