Course Takeaways

  • Connect the Story to the Strategy

    Communication should tell the story we need in order to move the audience to decide and act accordingly. Develop a comprehensive strategy for your communication to ensure you achieve your desired result.

  • Let the Story Drive the Slides

    Slides play an intentional role in directing and holding the audience’s attention. Use the storyboard tool as a device to organize the story and the team.

  • Craft Slides to Promote Understanding

    Slides are not merely pages waiting for content. Learn how to make the appropriate trade-offs between using text, concept visuals, tables, and quantitative charts to ensure your message is delivered clearly and persuasively.

How It Works

This online course will deliver 6 hours of interactive “classroom” learning (9:00 a.m. -12:00 p.m. each class day). You will complete some pre-work in advance of each “classroom” session.

  • Set the Communication Strategy

    Define the communication goals and develop the strategy to achieve them including conducting audience analysis, making format choices, and finalizing the focus and mix of communications required.

  • Scaffold the Story

    Create the structure for the story, draft the storyline, and sketch the prototypical slides and navigation.

  • Create the Slides

    Design the slide template and make intentional trade-offs between slide content options of text, concept visuals, tables, and quantitative charts.

  • Stress-test the Communication

    Ensure message clarity by making sure that the thoughts and language are articulated as intended; edit, edit, edit, and ensure a cohesive, well-crafted document is the result.

  • Showtime! Practice and Engage

    Remember that the delivery is just as important as the content. Connect with your audience by authentically communicating content with a high level of authority, energy and commitment.

Featured Instructor

Patrick Noonan
Professor Emeritus in the Practice of Information Systems and Operations Management

Patrick Noonan

Patrick Noonan teaches decision analysis, a field that draws on both past wisdom and today’s analytical methodologies of economics, psychology, statistics, sociology, and engineering. The result? Refined and relevant prescriptions for improving decision-making. Its broad applicability in business, professions, health sciences, politics, and life is one reason Patrick remains current with what’s now in those areas, so that he can help leaders better decide what’s next. He has lectured at universities worldwide – from Shanghai to Helsinki to Montevideo – and infuses that global perspective into the courses he delivers at Emory. Beyond the classroom, Patrick teaches the “craft skills” of consulting and problem-solving through workshops. Participants benefit from his real-world experience as a management consultant and the knowledge he gleans from disparate clients like the CDC, Greenpeace USA, and Microsoft.
