Consulting Presentations and Storytelling

This is the #5 course in the specialization on management consulting. In the previous 4 courses, we’ve learned how consultants break down problems with tools and logical thinking. Now, it’s time to bring all the parts together into consulting-quality presentations and deliverables. Every consulting project is different, and yet, the final presentation will have many of the same elements: • Clear alignment among the stakeholders on the project goals • Understanding on the consulting approach, assumptions, and decisions • Thoughtful progression of ideas that “brings the audience along” • Well-constructed PowerPoint slides (or excel model) which tell a clear story • Impactful use of graphs, tables, data visualization • Persuasive and authoritative delivery style

Good instructor. The speed is a bit slow, but the content is good. I do recommend the book Storytelling with Data by Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic.

Another great course delivered brilliantly by John - thank you. The only thing that could make it better is the ability to download the slides (please make this as default for all courses!)

Great course. This is not a skill I’ve needed very often in my career in the past, but it is becoming increasingly important for what I’m doing. I learned many good tips. Thank you, John!

Easy to follow, not difficult to learn and practice. Would recommend to anyone who is interested in learning more about consulting, especially if they already have a background in business or similar.
