Keep it short and simple. A single slide with about a 30-second introduction will do the trick.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>Focus on what the data means to your audience. <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>How will their work or life change as a result? &nbsp;Does your data mean different things to different people? &nbsp;Bring that out when you present survey results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>Provide your learnings and conclusions as a 1-2 punch<\/strong>.<\/h4>\n<p>On one slide, put what you learned or a conclusion supported by a dramatic picture. &nbsp;On the second slide, show them the proof. &nbsp;DO NOT put a table or a chart with lots of little tiny numbers and lines. &nbsp;See this slide below &#8212; DON&#8217;T DO THAT.
