Steering committees

Steering committee presentation: template and structure

Paste last month's status report and your RAID log, or upload them as PDF, Word or PowerPoint files, and say what you need the committee to decide. Arcdeck drafts the update as headlines you can check, from where the project stands against plan to the escalations and next steps, then writes and designs every slide.

No card needed. 17 slide layouts, 22 templates, 12 languages.

The storyline Arcdeck drafts

You edit these headlines before a single slide is designed.

What you get

A progress update, not the plan again

The plan was approved at kick-off. Each meeting, the deck shows what has changed: the overall status, progress against the baseline, and what is off track and why.

RAG status by workstream

Workstreams, milestones and budget lines go in a status table marked red, amber or green, with a one-line reason beside every amber and red.

Decisions and escalations up front

What you need from the committee comes straight after the summary, with the options and your recommendation, so the meeting is spent deciding rather than reading.

Milestones, budget and risks you can see

Milestones become a timeline against the baseline, spend against budget becomes a chart, and each risk or issue gets an owner, a date and a mitigation.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Describe it or upload it

    A sentence is enough. Or add PDF, Word or PowerPoint files, a link, or pasted notes.

  2. Step 2

    Shape the storyline

    Arcdeck drafts the argument as headlines. Reorder, reword or cut them, then pick a template.

  3. Step 3

    Get the slides

    Every slide is written and designed, with charts and speaker notes. Present, share a link, or export.
