I’ve built a career in strategy (Google, Bain & Co.), and as such, I have spent more time in PowerPoint and Google Slides than any normal human should. Somehow though, I still enjoy reviewing, improving, and building presentations. —MY EXPERIENCE— My work at Bain has gone to boards, C-level executives, and executive committees at Fortune 500 / FTSE 100 companies. At Google my materials are seen by VPs and above. As a freelancer (on the side), I’ve worked directly with start-up founders preparing for their seed round, Fortune 500 executives preparing content to present to their C-suite and board, and everything in between. (See portfolio for some illustrative examples.) —MY APPROACH— I think of my presentation work as building LEGOs - typically you supply the content (the LEGO pieces), with some ideas as to what you want, then I go away and build an organized, creative deck with a coherent storyline that will help you land your message. I consider your audience and what they care about, and I consider you as the presenter and build decks to make sure the connection between the two is optimal. —MY PROCESS— I am typically very collaborative. You send materials, we have an initial call, then I put together a first draft that you can react to. We then have a calibration call, and then we go back and forth with iterations until the deck is perfect. I’m not done until we are both absolutely confident that your pitch deck / board presentation / sales presentation / etc. is a winner. —MY VALUE— I am someone who will challenge you. My value add is not just transactional slide building. My real value is as a partner and advisor on a project. If I think your deck is too long, I’ll tell you. If your proposed storyline is confusing, I’ll advise you. Where we disagree, I commit to explaining my viewpoint and then committing to whatever you, as the client, ultimately decide.
