This was incredibly informative. I really appreciate you all taking the time to share. I’m going to be using a lot of the information here immediately! I’d love to read any additional insights on slide design or thoughts you all have on other communication styles as well.

Management consulting firms have lots of great ideas on slide design: https://www.theanalystacademy.com/consulting-presentations/
Some things they do well:
They treat slides as documents that can be understood standalone (this is even useful when presenting, as not everyone is following every word)
They employ a lot of hierarchy to help make the content skimmable (helpful for efficiency)
They put conclusions / summaries / action items up front, details behind (helpful for efficiency, especially in a high trust environments)
