Bridging the Gap Between Data & Storytelling | Business Ninjas: WriteForMe & John Polk & Associates
In this episode of Business Ninjas, Andrew Lippman chats with John Polk, President of John Polk & Associates, about how smart businesses turn data into influence—not just reports. With a background in strategy, analytics, and leadership at Capital One, John now helps companies refine their presentation and storytelling skills to better connect with audiences, drive decision-making, and sharpen their strategic messaging.
John’s firm focuses on much more than pretty slides. They help clients—ranging from Fortune 500s to startups and even medical professionals—develop clear strategies, eliminate communication gaps, and blend data with narrative to influence stakeholders. He also shares insight into his upcoming book, Presentation Pitfalls (Wiley, September), a practical guide for avoiding the most common traps professionals fall into when building and delivering presentations in both in-person and virtual settings.
Whether you're pitching, presenting, or persuading, John Polk & Associates teaches you how to speak with clarity and lead with confidence.
