Build McKinsey style executive presentations, covering the Pyramid Principle, data storytelling, slide design, delivery, and AI refinement.

Description

Consulting firms refined a presentation style that now shows up in board meetings, investor pitches, and strategy reviews, and this course teaches it step by step. It covers structuring the story, designing clear slides, presenting data persuasively, and delivering recommendations with confidence, plus how to use ChatGPT to sharpen logic and polish design.

This Course Offers

  • The Pyramid Principle, MECE logic, dot dash structure, and storyboarding for structuring your argument
  • Step by step training on headlines, executive summaries, charts, tables, and process maps
  • Professional standards for fonts, colours, layouts, and data visualisation
  • Rehearsal, review, and stress testing methods for slides under tight deadlines
  • Delivery techniques covering voice, body language, humour, and handling Q&A, plus ChatGPT for refining storyline, logic, and slide design

Why We Love This Course

  1. There are no prerequisites, so it works whether you are new to presenting or refining existing skills.
  2. Hands on experience with PowerPoint or Keynote is helpful but the course covers the design fundamentals.
  3. Delivery is covered alongside slide construction, which is where good decks often fail in the room.
  4. John Burress brings over a decade of corporate strategy experience across finance, technology, healthcare, and manufacturing, with over 500,000 learners enrolled.

Complex information only drives decisions when it is structured and presented well, and that skill shows up at every senior level. Do you want your analysis to be understood and acted on, or politely received and forgotten? Enrollment is open, and no prerequisites are required.
