Transform complex ideas into clear, persuasive presentations

Libby Magliolo helps leaders turn complex ideas into clear, decision-driving presentations.


After a decade in management consulting at PwC and leading strategic planning initiatives at Southwest Airlines, Libby saw a consistent gap inside high-performing organizations. Brilliant professionals were expected to present high-stakes ideas without ever being taught how to structure, simplify, and persuade. The result was cluttered slides, buried insights, and missed opportunities to influence executives and stakeholders.


Today, Libby equips corporate teams, executives, and MBA students at SMU’s Cox School of Business with practical frameworks for executive storytelling, data visualization, and high-impact delivery. Her sessions are known for being immediately actionable and grounded in real-world business pressure, not theory. Leaders frequently apply her tools long after the session, often referring to refined decks as having been “Libbyfied.”

Libby’s approach bridges strategy and design. Drawing from her consulting and corporate background, she teaches audiences how to:


  • Clarify the core message behind complex information
  • Structure persuasive narratives executives can quickly grasp
  • Turn dense data into visuals that drive alignment
  • Design slides that support the speaker and accelerate decisions
  • Deliver presentations with confidence, credibility, and concision


Whether working with executive teams, sales organizations, or emerging leaders, Libby provides repeatable systems that improve communication across the organization, not just for one presentation.

Her mission is simple: help professionals present less, say more, and make their ideas land.
