How to Create Compelling Slides that Support Your Verbal Message

Date: November 10, 2025

Time: 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Location: Virtual

How to Create Compelling Slides to Support Your Verbal Message is Part 2 of the topic: How to Persuade Others to Support Your Sustainability Project.

Slides that accompany data driven presentations are often full of rows of tiny numbers, or mis-leading charts and graphs that confound the audience rather than helping them to understand the speaker’s main point. Too much information on one slide a common error.

In this presentation, participants will learn how to support what they say with visuals that are based on how audience members see and remember. They will learn to create uncluttered slides, that utilize charts and graphs that clearly communicate relevant information, all in the interest of persuading their audience to support their initiatives.
