If you want to present like a top consultant, mastering just 4 slide types can dramatically elevate your communication and impact.
In this episode, we break down the 4 essential slides every consultant, strategist, and business leader should know:
- SCQ (Situation-Complication-Question): The storytelling framework that sets up your narrative
- Executive Summary: The slide that tells your whole story in one powerful snapshot
- Content Slides: The core of your message, built with clarity and logic
- Next Steps: The action-oriented close that drives alignment and decision-making
Whether you're presenting to clients, internal stakeholders, or the C-suite, these slides are the foundation of a compelling, persuasive deck.
