If anything my relatively short career of 8yrs in FINANCIAL PLANNING & ANALYSIS (FPA) taught me was that my target audience had the attention span of child as they would jump meeting to meeting, call to call or engaged in board-rooms discussions. Time allotted to put-forth views and data kept decreasing each year. Sometimes, the information and red flags were unheard or skipped due to lack of time.
This is usually when the Power of Visualization plays an important role to –

- Highlight slippages
- Raise red flags
