Teil 1 Das . :O!o, ,-und treffsicher Neun Uhr morgens, am dritten Dienstag im Monat. Der Strate- gieausschuss tritt zu seiner monatlichen Sitzung zusammen. Das Wort hat Dr. Frank, viel versprechender Nachwuchsmanager und vom Ausschussvorsitzenden beauftragt, mit seiner Prasentation das Thema des Tages einzufuhren: Lage der Branche und Position des eigenen Unternehmens als Orientierungsrahmen fur neue Investitionsvorhaben. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 12 Einfuhrung Entschlossen, seine Sache gut zu machen, hat Dr. Frank grundlich recherchiert, eine saubere Gliederung ausgearbeitet und auch die Schaubilder zur visuellen Untermalung nicht vergessen.

Allerdings, auch das Umgekehrte gilt: Schaubilder, die nicht gut konzi- piert und gestaltet sind, stiften mehr Verwirrung als Erhellung. Und ge- nau das wird unser Referent gleich sehr anschaulich beweisen. Setzen wir uns also unter seine Zuhorer und lassen seine Prasentation auf uns wirken.
