Ask an Expert: Live with Alex Bond Burnett

66
Mins

Overview

In this Ask an Expert session, Alex Bond-Burnett — executive coach, behavioural specialist and Founder of Bond Burnett Consulting — unpacks why financial insights fail to land, and shares the five non-negotiables she uses to help finance leaders communicate data with impact. Drawing on behavioural science, the trust equation and data storytelling, she shows how to turn technical detail into decisions your stakeholders genuinely understand, trust and make with confidence.

Fathom's host also demonstrates how these principles come to life in the product — using microforecasts, scenarios and a business roadmap to move clients from "how did we do?" to "here's where we're headed."

Whether you're an advisor proving your value in the age of AI, or a finance leader who wants to be heard in the room where decisions are made, this session will change how you present your numbers.

In this webinar you'll learn

  • Why financial insights fail to land — and the behavioural barriers (overwhelming detail, framing, present bias, low trust) that get in the way
  • Alex's five non-negotiables for communicating data with impact: serve well, quality over quantity, show don't tell, speak their language, and don't be the hero
  • How to turn complex, technical detail into a clear story your stakeholders remember and act on
  • How to read the room and adapt to different personalities and communication styles, using tools like DiSC
