A key challenge in investor relations is how to clearly and effectively present information about your company's investment story. Whether it's an investor presentation, content on your IR website, or other material, it may well be overloading or confusing your audience.
The human eye is great at processing a lot of information in a hurry. For survival reasons, our visual systems have evolved to analyze information quickly and efficiently - no matter what we are viewing. Steven Franconeri, Professor of Psychology, Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management, will reveal how to harness our brains' potential to communicate your company's investment appeal in the most compelling manner as well as how to more broadly convey important information to a range of audiences.
Learning Objectives: At the end of this program, participants will be able to:
- Tell your investment story clearly and concisely across a presentation deck.
- Enhance and polish your existing investor presentations/materials.
- Explore and implement more ways to present your data in a visual form.
