1 Choose relevant data

The first step is to select the data and statistics that are most relevant to your presentation's purpose, audience, and message. Don't overload your slides with numbers, graphs, or charts that are not directly related to your main points or that don't answer your audience's questions. Instead, focus on the data and statistics that support your claims, illustrate your examples, or show your results. Use data and statistics that are credible, accurate, and up-to-date, and cite your sources clearly.

Never make it as mess. Include only data that stands relevant and supplements the narrative. Have authentic data and cite sources and present it in visually appealing, simplified way.

It is said that “garbage-in garbage-out”. A good mindset I learned is that causality is better than correlation. Seek data that can have logical cause-and-effect relationship rather than accepting all data and testing it. This attempt shall result in irrelevant results. Critical thinking at the start is a good skill to achieve a concise and effective result.

2 Simplify complex data

The second step is to simplify the data and statistics that you use in your presentation. Don't assume that your audience is familiar with the technical terms, acronyms, or jargon that you use to describe your data and statistics. Explain them in simple and clear language, and avoid using too many decimals, percentages, or fractions. Use visual aids, such as graphs, charts, or tables, to display your data and statistics in a way that is easy to read and understand. Use colors, labels, and legends to highlight the key information and trends. Avoid cluttering your visual aids with too much text, data, or details.

?Use visuals effectively: Instead of dense tables or raw numbers, use clear charts, graphs, and infographics. Visuals help audiences quickly grasp trends, comparisons, or relationships. ?Choose the right chart: Ensure you're using appropriate types of visualizations (e.g., bar charts for comparison, line graphs for trends, pie charts for proportions).

3 Tell a story with data

The third step is to tell a story with the data and statistics that you use in your presentation. Don't just present the data and statistics as facts or figures, but show how they relate to your audience's needs, interests, or goals. Use data and statistics to create a narrative that shows the problem, the solution, and the benefits of your proposal, idea, or product. Use data and statistics to create contrast, comparison, or causation between different scenarios or outcomes. Use data and statistics to create emotion, curiosity, or surprise in your audience. Use data and statistics to reinforce your call to action or your key takeaways.

?Narrative approach: Weave your data into a story. Instead of just showing numbers, explain what they mean for your audience. Start with a problem, then show how the data provides a solution or insight. ?Contextualize: Give context to the statistics. For example, don’t just say "sales increased by 10%"; explain why it matters or how it compares to previous performance.

4 Engage your audience with data

The fourth step is to engage your audience with the data and statistics that you use in your presentation. Don't just talk at your audience, but invite them to interact with your data and statistics. Use questions, polls, quizzes, or games to test their knowledge, challenge their assumptions, or spark their interest. Use anecdotes, stories, or examples to connect your data and statistics to real-life situations or experiences. Use humor, metaphors, or analogies to make your data and statistics more memorable or relatable. Use gestures, voice, or eye contact to emphasize your data and statistics and to show your enthusiasm or confidence.

?Know your audience: Tailor your data presentation to the level of understanding and interest of your audience. Explain technical terms and use analogies if necessary. ?Focus on insights: Translate raw data into actionable insights that are relevant to the audience. Show them what the data implies for their situation.

5 Review and refine your data

The fifth step is to review and refine the data and statistics that you use in your presentation. Don't just rely on your first draft, but check your data and statistics for accuracy, clarity, and relevance. Ask for feedback from a colleague, a friend, or a potential audience member, and see if they can understand, remember, and agree with your data and statistics. Use their input to improve your data and statistics, and to eliminate any errors, inconsistencies, or redundancies. Practice your presentation with your data and statistics, and see if you can deliver them smoothly, confidently, and convincingly.

6 Learn from the best

The sixth step is to learn from the best examples of data and statistics integration in presentations. Don't just follow your own intuition, but look for inspiration from other speakers, experts, or influencers who use data and statistics effectively in their presentations. Watch their videos, read their slides, or attend their events, and observe how they choose, simplify, tell, engage, and review their data and statistics. Analyze their techniques, strategies, and styles, and see what works and what doesn't. Adapt their best practices to your own presentation, and avoid their common mistakes.

??Practice Data Storytelling?? ?Interactive tools: If possible, use interactive data visualization tools to allow your audience to explore the data during or after your presentation. Break it down: Break complex data points into smaller, digestible segments and explain them step by step.
