A well-chosen visualization can make complex information understandable at a glance.<\/p><p><strong>3. concise language:<\/strong> Formulate your messages in short, clear sentences. Avoid technical jargon if it is not absolutely necessary and explain complex terms if they need to be used.<\/p><p><strong>4. reduction of details:<\/strong> Concentrate on the key aspects and reduce unnecessary details.
