This Jolt is for anyone who needs to translate data insights into compelling visual stories for other key audiences: customers, teams with different specialisms, senior stakeholders, journalists, investors, or the wider public. The Jolt will give you the skills and the principles, so by the end, you can apply it on the simplest PowerPoint chart, or on more complex interactive visualizations.
The Jolt is a mix of a formal presentation, group discussion, and practical exercises. You'll leave this Jolt having planned, designed, and refined your own visualization.
Questions this talk answers:
01
What are the key elements of a successful infographic or presentation?
02
How to take large reports, and more complicated data, and structure it into a story?
