With 1.5k employees making 300+ presentations daily without brand support, presentation aesthetics varied widely. To address this, I developed global presentation brand standards, streamlining the process and ensuring consistency.
The new template was implemented across all departments for internal and external communication, including important events like an IPO deck at the NYSE and engineering round tables.
