This is the Minto Pyramid Principle. Situation, Complication, Question, Answer. The question isn't always 'what should we do?', it can be many other things, like 'we know what to do, but how do we do it?', etc. The answer is a structured in a pyramid format, with the conclusion coming first, followed by reasons, then giving evidence for each reason.

Funny thing is that I did use exact this in one of the strategy projects I did for our Director. He indeed told me that consultants from McKinsey and BCG first write the storyline in Word and then build the PowerPoint. He said they do send the storyline to India and the next morning they wake up the PowerPoint is build. While i have to do it myself haha. I work as a strategist at a major foodretailer.

Hi Dan. I want to say 'thank you' for your amazing newsletters and videos on storytelling. I recently transitioned to data analysis from sales and business development, I am working towards developing my skill in training and development. Storytelling is an essential skill to be a good data analyst and trainer, it's one part that has been so confusing to master for me. I'm glad I found you. Your tips have been helpful and it's making better everyday in creating storyline in PowerPoint. I have subscribed to your channel and am looking forward to seeing more videos from you.

As a data analyst who builds financial dashboards, I found your insights on the McKenzie approach very relevant and enlightening. My primary focus is on informing rather than persuading, letting the data lead to conclusions. In your consultancy work, have you noticed any key differences between constructing dashboards and traditional presentations, especially with these objectives in mind? Any shared wisdom would be highly appreciated! Thank you for your expertise, looking forward to your response!

Dan - If you use WORD’s STYLES to create the DOT DASH structure in a WORD OUTLINE, you can copy an OUTLINE straight into PowerPoint. I agree that using WORD to bolt the story together is an excellent path. Great video. Then iterations of the WORD OUTLINE, with your manager, will automatically change the Powerpoint deck. I’ve used this trick many times.

This is a tried and tested method for making powerpoints. One more way like the dot-dash structure is by doing Issue Tree, where you write a problem statement (issue) and start asking Whys? until the end. Your reasons will branch out to give final answers. This will help bulid a structure and divide the slides into sections as well.

Before dropping anything into PowerPoint slides, I whiteboard out everything - usually using sticky notes to make it easy to move things around: - Linearly deconstruct the issue, putting the core point in one or a few words on each sticky note. - Add additional sticky notes below with the subpoints. - You will start to see a storyboard appear with Core points on the top line and sub-points under. - Determine the story you are trying to tell and look for gaps... add notes on what is missing. Once you have the flow of the story as well as core/sub-points outlined, you can translate this into a deck or whitepaper.

Good questions! Generally these types of presentations are more like reports, so they don't use agendas. But if you need to present something using slides, an agenda slide is useful.

Hi Dan, great video! Finally, after researching on my own and not being able to understand them, I can grasp the framework through your content. Quick question: On average, how long do you usually come up with the final draft of SCR and dot dash? Is it possible to draft them without essential data at the top of your mind (especially when working on niche topics)?
@DanGalletta
@DanGalletta Жыл бұрын
Thanks Christine! Usually you'll start your project with an "emerging storyline" which is your hypothesis on what the storyline could end up being. As you conduct analysis and synthesize findings, you regularly update that storyline with new information. As you might imagine, there will be a lot of iteration between analysis and storylining over the life of the project. It's difficult to say how long that process takes. It could be very quick for a small and well-understood problem or it could be very long for a big and complex problem. Hope that helps!

Great video! How would you apply this to a strategy presentation where you are selling a strategy or introducing a new technology to automate say customer operations? And please could you share the references such as the using ms word advice. I would love to read more on this.

Ah it really depends on the context and the analysis that you’ve done. I would recommend going through the storylining process and seeing what you can come up with!

What about options before recommendation or action? I’m a technical product manager and do a lot of BA work as well as product management work. I find that In tech businesses especially with the rise of entrepreneurial mindset in place of corporate mindset are wanting us to communicate with problem, options, recommended solutions. I see a lot of value in using this framework combined with id the pyramid principle, when communicating to business leaders. What are your thoughts about? Including options before recommendation, or are those options better placed inside of the complexities

Yep 100% agree. Showing options can be part of your resolution. It also demonstrates you’ve considered a wide range of possibilities 👍🏼

Absolutely! I worked in sales at a major firm and they use this exact approach. In fact, most top consulting firms use this approach to up sell more work on the engagement.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 🎯 *Firms like McKinsey aim to influence clients with presentations designed for action, not to gather dust.* 01:09 🧠 *The SCQA (Situation, Complication, Question, Answer) framework is a universal structure used by top consulting firms for storytelling in presentations.* 03:20 📊 *McKinsey's presentation for King County's homelessness project demonstrates the application of the SCQA framework.* 05:24 📝 *Before diving into PowerPoint, craft your presentation storyline in Word for better iteration and logical coherence.* 07:02 🔄 *McKinsey's "dot dash" structure in Word aids in distilling analysis into a persuasive storyline for presentations.* 08:41 🖼️ *PowerPoint slides should follow both horizontal (action titles) and vertical (slide bodies) logical flows for a coherent narrative.* 10:35 📚 *For more insights on creating executive-ready slide decks, consider exploring additional resources such as courses.* Made with HARPA AI

Thank you so much Dan for such a clear and crisp explanation of the process. Reminds me of the consulting days - Suddenly this popped into my feed and thought of checking it out, but I am so impressed with this calm and comprehensive presentation that I am gonna bookmark this as a reference whenever I have to do any presentation.

Hi Dan, I was under the assumption that during the analysis stage, consultants worked with PowerPoint to brainstorm and generate final slides (except recommendations). What would be the best practice for documentation during the case analysis and synthesis stage?
@DanGalletta
@DanGalletta 7 ай бұрын
In my experience, it's best to do analysis and synthesis in Excel or Word, and only use PowerPoint once you've finished those things. Instead of brainstorming slide design etc in PowerPoint, we would hand draw them on paper or on a whiteboard.

Hi Dan, Speaking about the course you've mentioned here: do I need to create an account on your website to get access to it? Is the link to the course sent to the email after payment or one gets access online immediately right after? There reason I'm asking is coz I didn't find any 'create an account' tab on the website.

I understand how consulting firms stay in business. I understand why "homelessness" will never be solved in King County. I understand why the cost of housing will continue to increase. Government created problems require government created solutions. The kicker is that the "solution" is to never solve the problems. Thanks for sharing this storytelling knowledge. I already thought of some ways to use it in business.

Hi, I recently need to do summary slides for complicated projects, my manager is still not really happy after many many corrections 😢. On one hand it need to be compact, but on the other hand he wants to have more content with cost/benefit (including data), I really struggle to squeeze the right information in the slides. Any suggestions?

Ah sorry, it’s really hard for me to help without more context. One idea is to draw out a slide skeleton on paper and test it with your manager before you spend time making slides. Good luck!
