When I worked on the remediation project at ANZ We had to present the programs findings conclusions and recommendations I was asked to prepare a comprehensive presentation for the Program Director to brief the ELT and possibly the wider group execs I worked hard to ensure that the presentation I wrote was clear, concise and articulate, that key points were communicated and that the language was unambiguous Everything I wrote was thoroughly researched. At times it was necessary for me to negotiate with other parties on the basis that what they wanted to include in presentations wasn’t supported by the evidence, and to this end I had to be very persuasive with people much more senior than myself. I negotiated with the Financial Data Quality Team. GMs in Operations and Retail Banking GMs, senior members of the development department and SMEs over the content and format of the presentation Preparing large presetnations like this is often a collaborative process between the writer, the person who is going to give the speech, and an array of other people, from Senior to junior and everything in between. I’m always ready to accept comments and criticism on my drafts, and I always seek to remove misunderstandings and listen carefully to the view of others. Unfortunately, when you write a presentation for someone else you are only recognised for the errors, but in this role I got my share of recognition as well. I got a personal recognitions and response of thanks from the ELT.
