Description

Open lecture on Dr. Hichert's International Business Communication Standards

Hosted by Microsoft

In our talk, we will present the best practices in designing financial reports, dashboards, and presentations, implemented in some of the world's most renowned companies, such as Coca-Cola bottlers, Swarovski, Roche, Bayer, Philips, SAP, etc.



All too often, financial reports fall somewhere between messy spreadsheets and dashboards, full of poorly labeled and inappropriate charts, 3D effects, and speedometers, that simply do not get the message across to the decision makers.

Messy spreadsheet, inappropriate dashboard

Countless reports and presentations are created throughout organizations daily, all in different formats, lengths, shapes, and colors, depending on personal preferences of the person who prepares them.

Solution?

Dr. Hichert’s International Business Communication Standards (IBCS) are world’s first proposal for a standardized design of business communication. The “traffic signs for management” are an extensive set of rules and recommendations that went viral in Europe and have solved business communication problems in companies such as Coca-Cola bottlers, Swarovski, Roche, Bayer, Philips, SAP, etc.

Profit&Loss statement



Thanks to our host Microsoft, this exclusive meetup is now free and open to all FP&A professionals, financial managers, BI consultants, Excel ninjas, and report/dashboard designers.




We'll present the key features of the IBCS through real-world examples and discuss their slightly controversial proposition: the design of business information should look (more or less) the same across all companies, regardless of their size, industry or location.


We will also present the most efficient ways of implementing the IBCS in Microsoft Power BI and MS Excel.
