Hi Everyone!
I’ve been asked to develop 4 slides that summarise a firm’s strategy but I won’t get the chance to present the deck. Does anyone have any tips on how to make great, concise slides? Thank you!

Here’s one approach that comes to mind. My first 3 slides would focus on the company’s values, culture, inclusion efforts etc; more of a refresher. A great way to gain the participants attention is to start with info they may already be familiar with. My last slide is where the most time will be spent. It will tie the aforementioned topics into the strategy and go on to explain the strategy in more detail. I would keep the slides very simple by using images that speak to each topic. Your company may already have images you can use.
