Topic

From Stats to Movie-Style Story

Abstract

Your next presentation does not have to be boring. Ted and Dave will show how they used movie-style storytelling to transform a data-filled deck into a presentation that had top execs at the edge of their seats and asking for more. It’s all in the way you tell your data's story, so you don’t even need video. What you do need, though, is a desire to make a difference, and an even greater desire to never sit through another data dump again.
