& Associates
Communication and influencing skills are critical for your success, especially through the most common language in most companies, presentations. We are dedicated to improving your data visualization, communication, and influencing skills to drive action.
The Challenge
Estimates have put the corporate waste from ineffective presentations at over $1 billion per day!
Which of these communication challenges do you or your organization face?
- Unclear strategies lead to unclear presentations
- Poor storytelling makes presentations forgettable
- Ineffective data visualization means high-leverage insights are lost
- Ineffective presentations lead to follow-ups
- Skill gaps limit ability to create professional presentations quickly
- Differing templates lead to inconsistent slides or time wasted reformatting
- Authors must start from scratch every time
Who We Help
If you create high-stakes presentations to influence and drive actions, we can improve your skills and get you the outcomes you want. Here are some of the people we’ve helped:
- The C-Suite presenting to the Board
- Executives presenting to the C-Suite or leading their team in an all-hands meeting
- Analysts who need to visualize data and tell a clear story to make their insights actionable
- Professionals driving decisions in budget, staffing, funding, or project meetings
- Educators who want their students to learn and retain more and who model presentation behavior every time they teach
- Startup founders who need funding to survive and grow their business
- Conference presenters who need to engage 100s of people at a time … and want to get invited back next year
How We Help
We offer workshops and coaching to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of your critical communications. We will give you the tools to make your ideas shine and your data sing.
Workshops
We teach participants how to design and deliver presentations that drive action. Training pulls together the science behind communication and influence to give participants practical ways to refine their strategy, visualize their data, and create and deliver effective presentations.
Coaching
We help strategic leaders learn how to make their ideas compelling to motivate others to action. Analytic leaders learn how to visualize data to make insights clear and actionable. All leaders learn how to tell stories and remove the noise that interferes with their message.
Presentation Toolkits
We partner with organizations to establish professional, branded presentation and slide templates that enable teamwork and dramatically reduce development time.
