IFST Sensory Science Group event: Noel, Narrative & Numbers

 Registration is closed for this event
Organised by IFST's [...] Branch

Organised by IFST's Sensory Science Group (SSG)

In a world that is full of information and data, how do we present our research findings in an engaging and interesting way?  How do we hone our presentations to communicate the message that we need to get across? 

This SSG Lunchtime Forum will focus on data presentation.  Our speakers will discuss how to use data to tell influential, evidence-based stories and show us novel ways of visualising and representing numbers and statistics.  And because this event is close to Christmas there will be elements of festive fun! 

The SSG is delighted to welcome Sam Knowles, corporate storyteller and author of Narrative and Numbers to present at this event.  Sam will be joined by Sensory and Consumer Research Consultant and SSG member, Lauren Rogers and Charlotte Austin, a communication coach & behavioural therapist who presents the AQR course, ‘Communicating your Story’.

Noel, Narrative and Numbers is being hosted by Sensory Dimensions Ltd at its Nottingham site.
