To insert a chart:

1. Navigate to the 'Insert' tab.
2. Click on the 'Chart' option.

To use a call-out box:

1. Navigate to the 'Insert' tab.
2. Click on the 'Callout' option.
3. Draw a call-out box near the specific data point the presenter wants to highlight (e.g., a particularly high profit margin).
4. Enter a brief explanation or key takeaway within the call-out box.

To use shapes (arrows):

1. Navigate to the 'Insert' tab.
2. Click on the 'Shapes' option.
3. Select an arrow shape.
4. Draw an arrow pointing from the chart data to the call-out box to visually connect the data and the explanation.

Considerations for effective communication:

• Use clear and concise labels for the chart axes and data points.
• Use colour consistently to highlight important elements.
• Ensure the chart is easy to read and understand at a glance.
• The call-out box should provide context and explanation, not just repeat the data.
