Presentation Skills

Using numbers to tell a story 

Solving the problems faced when trying to communicate through numebrs:

  • You need to present to a wide group of departments in the company and communicate the nuance of your thoughts without the highly technical language you are used to
  • You spend days on data to gain a grasp on the full picture, but now you need to present this in a way that is engaging and easy to understand
  • The client you are working with understands best when you place your numbers in a way that creates a story
  • You are pulled into an executive meeting and need to defend your numbers without the time to prepare
