How to Turn Dead Data into Decisions — in Just 4 Hours
Transform Your Charts, Your Text, and Any Pile of Numbers into a Story That Sells
If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand
it well enough.
Albert Einstein
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Sam Schreim, the best‑selling author behind Storytelling Charts, will hand you the same playbook he gives Fortune 500 teams. Two fast‑paced, live sessions. One mission: transform your data into a story that sells, persuades, and unlocks budget — every single time.

AI is rewriting the rules. Get ahead, or chase the pack later.
Attention spans are collapsing. You have 7 seconds to hook the room. Make every slide fight for its life.
If you conduct presentations to bosses, boards, classrooms, or
clients — this workshop pays for itself the first time you open your presentation maker.

Charts That Command Attention
Design visuals that land your message the first time — clear, sharp, and impossible to ignore.
AI That Works for You

Arguments that Stick

Narratives That Flow Like a Story, Not a Spreadsheet
Master the Vertical Logic™ framework and guide your audience effortlessly from point A to "I'm sold."
Confidence That Carries into Every Room
Step into meetings knowing your charts don't just inform—they persuade, inspire, and drive decisions.
Authority That Gets You Noticed
Become the person people call when clarity is critical and results matter.

Picture This:
You walk into your next meeting armed with slides so clear the room leans in. Questions turn into nods. Colleagues quote your insights verbatim. You leave the room with a green light — and a reputation as the person who "makes data talk."
This is your edge. In a world drowning in dashboards, the ability to tell a sharp, strategic story is your superpower.

Frequently Asked Questions
This workshop is designed for professionals who need to communicate data effectively and drive action:
Analysts & Data Scientists who want their insights to be understood and acted upon.
Managers & Team Leaders who need to present performance data, business cases, or strategic plans.
Marketing Professionals aiming to create more persuasive, data-backed campaigns and reports.
Sales Professionals looking to enhance their pitches with compelling data stories.
Consultants & Advisors who need to clearly communicate complex findings to clients.
Entrepreneurs & Business Owners seeking to secure investment or drive growth through data.
Anyone who has read the bestseller "Storytelling Charts" and wants to take their skills to the next level.
This intensive workshop is packed with actionable strategies and hands-on learning:
Module 1: Foundations of Storytelling Charts & The Power of Vertical Logic
• Understand why traditional charts fail and how storytelling transforms data communication.
• Deep dive into the "Vertical Logic" framework: the secret to building intuitively clear and persuasive visual narratives.
• Identify your core message and audience for maximum impact.
Module 2: Leveraging AI for Accelerated Chart Ideation, Design & Presentation Impact
• Discover the best AI tools for chart creation, data interpretation, and slide design.
• Learn effective prompting techniques to get the most out of AI for your specific data storytelling needs.
• Streamline your workflow: from raw data to polished, AI-enhanced charts in record time.
Module 3: The Harvard Case Method in Action: Deconstructing and Presenting a Real-Life Data Story
• Engage in a practical, real-world case study, applying the Harvard Business Case Method.
• Learn to analyze complex datasets, identify key insights, and structure a compelling narrative.
• Develop skills in presenting data-driven arguments persuasively and defending your conclusions.
Module 4: Applying Critical Thinking to Your Communication Strategy for Maximum Resonance
• Master Techniques for audience analysis and message framing
• Learn to anticipate questions, address potential skepticism and build trust through transparent data communications.
• Develop a strategic approach to ensure your data stories lead to desired outcomes.
Module 5: Crafting High-Impact Decks & Delivering Your Data Story with Confidence
• Integrate all learned principles into designing compelling presentation decks.

This workshop is designed to be accessible. We'll cover AI concepts relevant to chart creation and presentation in a clear, practical way. No advanced technical skills are required, just a willingness to learn.
The principles taught are software-agnostic. We will demonstrate some AI tools that are readily available (many with free tiers), but the focus is on the methodology you can apply anywhere. For the case study and exercises, standard presentation software (like PowerPoint) and spreadsheet software (like Excel or Google Sheets) will be useful.
While the core learning happens during the live sessions, you might have some light pre-reading for the case study or optional practice exercises. The primary commitment is your active participation during the workshop hours.
All sessions will be recorded and made available to participants after the workshop, so you can catch up on anything you miss.
