For an all-round efficient Data Storytelling the use of a supporting Business Intelligence solution is recommended. The BI-Software Qlik Sense already offers an integrated Data Storytelling tool, that allows you to combine different analysis-, reporting- and presentation technics. A special mechanism for making static snapshots of your favored data, which can be put together to an appropriate story on slides, is provided. The static snapshots can be arranged with different effects and the attention of the audience will be channeled on specific information.

For more interactivity, it is also possible to access the source (e.g. the corresponding live data) of the static snapshots during the presentation. Another possibility for more interactivity is the integration of worksheets into the slides. For more information about the Qlik Data Storytelling tool, watch the following video:
