To share or not to share?

Hello my CIPD Community members,

I need some feedback on a recent occurrence. My department was asked to do a Presentation and my boss threw it at me. I decided to do a Power Point presentation to make it engaging, which I was highly commended for.

I am now being asked to put my hard work on a shared drive so others can have access to it.

I feel like this is my work, my pride and joy, my pet and I don't really want to since I don't believe others will do it justice.

Any advice here?

    Whilst you are the author and rightly have been recognised for this , the presentation is not yours to do with as you wish but your employers both legally and  Morally. If you built cars and made a fantastic one you could no more say you didn’t want employer to sell it as it was yours.

    Take it as a compliment. Do sone fantastic speaker notes to add to the presentation. Offer to coach people who will use it.

    But accept that it’s not yours
