How to turn numbers into a story that business understands?

This course is designed for people who already give presentations but need to convert their data outputs into comprehensible, convincing, and managerially accessible presentations. We focus on how to create a clear story from a large amount of information that leads the audience to a decision. You will learn to work with narrative structure, message logic, and the explore → explain technique so that you can present data simply, concisely, and with maximum impact.

DATA STORYTELLING

How does the workshop help?

• You will learn how to transform data into a comprehensible story that can engage, inform, and persuade—even people without a technical background.
• You will gain practical techniques for visualizing and structuring information, giving your presentations, reports, and insights real impact.
•  You will strengthen your ability to influence decision-making using data, which will increase stakeholder confidence and the effectiveness of internal and external communication.
• You will immediately apply your new skills thanks to real-life examples and exercises that will prepare you to use data storytelling in your everyday practice.

Who is this workshop intended for?

What will I learn during the course?

After completing the course, you will be able to:

✅ formulate the main message (point) of the presentation precisely for your audience,

✅ select only the data that supports the story and eliminate the rest,

✅ use a simple narrative curve on which to hang key figures and graphs,

✅ translate analytical thinking into a story that even non-data roles can understand,

✅ use specific checklists and questions to prepare future presentations,

✅ test your style on safe model examples and your own data.

In addition, you will learn why to use the explore → explain technique so that listeners understand the result, not the process of your research, which is important for effective prioritization in today's challenging business environment

Frequently asked questions

Is the course also suitable for working with dashboards or reports?  

Yes. The principles of story structure and punch lines can also be applied to dashboards, status reports, and executive summaries.

Is the course also useful for presentations to the board/top management?  

Absolutely. The methods are designed to promote conciseness, clarity, and decision-making orientation—which is exactly what management expects.

What if I work with highly technical or complex data?  

That makes the course even more valuable. It will teach you how to translate complex analyses into understandable logic for an audience that is not "data-savvy."

Is the course also suitable for people who are new to presenting?  

No. The course assumes that participants already present and want to significantly improve the structure and narrative logic of their data communications.

What should I bring to the course?  

You don't need to bring anything except your own computer! We will provide everything else – from materials for taking notes to sufficient drinking water.
