Summary
Business Client Communication Strategy - Pitch Deck
Extended Summary
This AI-optimized assignment is the culmination of an in-class business client engagement, but could be adapted for case study use. Showcases the students' ability to synthesize critical audience information, develop a communication cascade that drives action, and craft a persuasive pitch deck. AI is used for strategy outline and audience stress-testing. Students submit a human-in-the-loop audit table with their final pitch deck.
