 nOverview\nCommunication is the core of any consultancy\, whether you are 
 working in academia or business and industry. And the most powerful way to
  communicate is to tell a good story! But what makes a story good\, depend
 s also on the audience you speak to. \nIn this interactive workshop you w
 ill learn \n- why stories are so powerful.\n- how to understand\, who you
 r audience is and what they need or expect from your story.\n- how to tran
 sform your analysis and insights into a story\, and thereby make it more m
 emorable. \n- what is needed to transform your plots into tools to suppor
 t the story of the data\, or even tells the story without a lot of explana
 tion. \n- a method to make your slides much more effective.\nThe workshop
  will alternate between short presentations and hands-on sessions applying
  the concepts to examples.\n \nShort bios\n\nMorten Bormann Nielsen is a
