"I have presented various types of financial data to executives and clients before. This is a skill I've had to teach myself because although I have always had a knack for numbers, talking in front of others took practice. Over time, I have become skilled in this area, however, and even enjoy doing it these days. Within my current role, I had to build a predictive financial model to show where the business would be in five years. Going into the project, I determined what numbers were most important to the executives in my company. After I had built the model and had taken feedback from colleagues under consideration, I created a slide deck with my conclusions and recommendations. I then presented my model and slides to the decision-makers in my company who of course had some follow-up questions. In the end, they decided to adopt several of my recommendations and commended me on the presentation itself."
