Presentation Deck Design

Brief

Create templates for Word, PowerPoint and Google Drive

Users

• Audience: Volunteer-led organization of young professionals
• Tone: Fun, refreshing, inclusive
• Limitation: Frequent turnover among volunteer leaders means little time for training and handoffs; complex guidance may fail, so brand tools must be streamlined to ensure consistency

Requirements

• Easy to use
• Flexible for use in workshops, internal presentations, data presentations and reporting
• Aligned with new brand standards while referencing the familiar shapes of the brand's history
• Designed for the most common content types used at the organization
• Fresh, bold and appealing, reflecting the "young professionals" brand story
