But it’s almost as important to be able to share this information in a way that draws people into the insights presented and inspires decision-makers towards action. In this course, you’ll learn techniques to engage audiences through effective storytelling, meaningful presentations using various tech tools and meeting settings that make everyone feel welcome. Participants will be invited to share their own examples of successful data presentations.
