Trends and Status Table with Up/Down Signs

Slide Content

The slide titled "Trends and Status Table with Up/Down Signs" details performance data across four quarters, Q1 through Q4. Each quarter column has an accompanying up or down arrow to indicate a rise or fall in values, signifying performance trends. There are six rows beneath each quarter laminated with blue, each row destined for inserting descriptive text and associated with specific performance metrics such as percentage changes or numerical values. Performance indicators like percentage change often denote growth or reduction, emphasizing the dynamics of a given metric over time.

Graphical Look

• The slide has a white background overlaid with a table comprising six blue rows and four dark blue arrow-adorned columns, each representing a quarter from Q1 to Q4.
• Each quarter column is equipped with up and down arrows: blue for positive trends, red for negative outcomes, and a grey equal sign to imply stability.
• The rows destined for text are shaded in varying intensities of blue, with lighter color tabs featuring white text for insertion.
• Each row correlates with an icon: arrows for performance trends, a checkmark for positives, a cross for negatives, a triangle to signal caution, and a circle to signify neutrality or stable performance.
• Colored symbols are associated with performance metrics: green for improvement, red for decline, grey for no change, and orange for a warning.

The overall look of the slide is clean and professional, with a well-organized layout that clearly segregates data through color-coded symbols and arrows, facilitating at-a-glance comprehension of trends and statuses for the presented metrics.
