Powerpoints for
decision-making

By Hester Haringsma

Trainer: Hester HaringsmaIk heb als strategie consultant honderden, misschien wel duizenden slides gemaakt. Gebaseerd op die ervaring geef ik al een aantal jaar training aan collega's. Inmiddels geef ik mijn trainingen ook extern aan andere organisaties en bedrijven.As strategy consultant I've built hundreds, maybe thousands of slides. Based on that experience I've been training colleagues for a number of years. In the meanwhile, I have also started to host my trainings externally to other organizations and companies.
