KNOCK YOUR NEXT DATA PRESENTATION WAY OUT OF THE PARK.

If you're here, there's a good chance that you're experiencing an all-too-common dilemma I call: the dreaded "data black hole".

You slave for days or weeks on a big data presentation or readout only to face confused expressions and challenging questions from your audience. You wonder what the point is of presenting if no one's going to understand or take action upon it.

So, how do you avoid the data black hole and start crushing it in the conference room?

I’ll tell you exactly what the secret is. Three words…

Powerful Data Presentation.

This year, Forrester predicted that 25% of new hires and promotions would require the hard and soft skills behind effective data communication.

What none of us were taught when we went to business school or college was how to present in a way that stimulates the brain and emotions, which are the key to causing your stakeholders to remember and act upon your insights.

That's why I created the Digital Data Storytelling Boot Camp.

Digital Data Storytelling Boot Camp is a comprehensive on-demand online course that leverages neuroscience, cinematic storytelling techniques, and best practices in data visualization.

Digital Data Storytelling Boot Camp is your one-stop shop to become an indispensable data presentation powerhouse.

10 YEARS OF DATA COMMUNICATION STUDY DISTILLED INTO LESS THAN 4 HOURS.

After taking this practical and approachable training, you'll be able to:

  • Find the right insights in your data to present based on your stakeholder's needs
  • Speak your stakeholders' language based on their savvy and business expertise
  • Brainstorm and plan a persuasive, engaging data narrative
  • Position recommendations for action
  • Quickly design beautiful and stunning slides that communicate your story clearly
  • Create visual builds that walk your audience through your story for maximum understanding
  • Choose the most effective chart for your data scenario
  • Create and design graphs and charts that are simple and easy to comprehend
  • Efficiently craft presentation handouts and leave-behinds that make the most of the live and offline experience
  • Learn all material from the convenience of your desk (NO pesky airport lines or expense reports!)

I'm Lea, Your Guide to Tidy Slides
Learning to present data effectively not only changed my career, but it changed my entire life.

I spent over ten years as a digital analyst and marketer, and struggled with presenting my insights in a way that didn't put my stakeholders to sleep.

In 2010, I decided I was tired of watching my hard work fly into the "data black hole." So I went on a journey of discovery of how the brain is wired to consume information and how humans are galvanized into action.

I pored through hundreds of blog posts, podcasts on aspirational and abstract ideas around data storytelling, but worked to create a toolbelt that was more practical and efficient.

When I began to use my data presentation toolbelt, that's when the magic started to happen.

I survived two layoffs and several reorganizations, got promoted, increased our platform budgets, got budget for more headcount, and then created a lucrative professional speaking career! (pretty much in that order)

When I started speaking about data storytelling at digital conferences around the world, I realized that the toolbox I'd curated could fill a huge knowledge gap in our industry.

Many analysts and marketers get training for Google Analytics, GTM, Adobe, DART, and learn how to use the data platforms.

But most of us don't get the training we need for presenting the data that comes out of the platforms.

Effective data communication can be learned the long and hard way, or the Pica way.

Let me save you years of frustration and self-driven research with this comprehensive deep dive into the art and (neuro)science of data presentation.

"We've gone from presenting unstructured data dumps to sharing effective data stories with both internal and external stakeholders. I was immediately able to apply a lot of what I'd learned to a client QBR with great feedback not just from the client, but the entire team. Also, the PICA Protocol was put to solid use by the entire team right away!"

WHO THIS COURSE IS FOR

This course is for any professional who presents data, ideas, processes, etc, in a live or virtual environment. Ideal roles are practitioners within either corporate brands or agencies as well as solo digital consultants and agency owners.

What kind of data you're presenting doesn't matter, but the working examples are geared toward digital marketing and optimization scenarios.

And although the data visualization principles taught are universal, this course is not specifically geared towards dashboard design or email reports.

Frequently Asked Questions


When does the course start and finish?
The course starts now and never ends! It is a completely self-paced online course - you decide when you start and when you finish.
How long do I have access to the course?
How does lifetime access sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own.
What if I am unhappy with the course?
I would never want you to be unhappy! If you are unsatisfied with your investment, contact me in the first 30 days and I will give you a full refund.
How much more is in the course vs. what you already put out on your blog?
If the blog is a book, the class is an encyclopedia. A handful of the core concepts I've discussed on my blog are in my course. However, the class goes into MUCH more detail, with use cases, examples, and checklists that you’ll use again and again to present information effectively. It also delivers all of the information in the SPECIFIC ORDER that gets you from presenting zero to hero. There is exclusive content in this course that you will not find ANYWHERE else.
Will this work for someone who is not in the "digital marketing" industry?
Absolutely. Even though I speak to digital marketing because I’m intimately familiar with the industry’s unique challenges, I’ve taught these methods to executive assistants, construction industry analysts, and even military engineers! All of the strategies taught are built on universal data storytelling principles.
What if I'm literally starting from step 0? No prior design experience. No data viz background...
Perfect! The entire first module is how to start from scratch on your data presentation planning process. It is specifically crafted to take a COMPLETE NEWBIE and show you the exact steps you need to go from presentation zero to hero.
I’m in, but my boss isn’t. How do I convince them to let me sign up?
Great question! I’ve created a handy “How To Convince Your Boss” letter template that you can use to make your case. Visit LeaPica.com/BossLetter and save a fresh copy for you to tailor to your voice and needs.
Should I take this course if I don't use PowerPoint to present information?
Absolutely! Although the productivity tips are geared towards PowerPoint, the teachings in the course will apply to ANY presentation tool you use that has a linear format! Whether you use Keynote, Google Slides, or other online tools, you'll be able to put these techniques into practice right away.
Is this a dashboard course?
No. This course is geared towards presenting data in a live meeting or webinar format using a digital presentation tool such as PowerPoint, Keynote, or Google Slides. You can apply the data visualization techniques to dashboards, but they are a completely different format for delivering information and therefore requires a different storytelling approach.
What if I’m not presenting data, but other informational content like training or education?
Great! The presentation planning, brainstorming, and slide design modules are perfect for any content you wish to present.

PS - I wanted to make sure you got the full list of benefits before you go.
