Poor data visualization leads to overly complicated charts that take too long to understand and steal valuable time from your audiences. Worse, a careless approach to charting can lead to misinterpretation of your messaging.

In this webinar, you’ll learn the best practices for creating and formatting charts in PowerPoint to maximize “glanceability,” plus the ins and outs of embedding vs linking, how to use chart templates and placeholders, and why legends can actually prevent audiences from understanding your data.

Nolan will also cover more effective alternatives to those problematic (and boring) pie charts and clustered columns.

Participants will learn how to:

• Craft a “McKinsey-worthy” chart title
• Use color appropriately
• Add emphasis for maximum effect
• Manage complicated charts and overlapping data
• Eliminate “chart junk”
• Recognize when a pie chart is appropriate and when it is absolutely not
