Ranking Wizard

Ranking Wizard

You can quickly and easily create slides that support decision-making, prioritization, or other kinds of
ranking with TurningPoint’s Ranking Wizard. The Ranking Wizard automatically creates slides to compare
items on one to three criteria, then summarizes the results in a chart.

For example, suppose you wanted to prioritize several projects you are considering. You might compare
them on the basis of cost, impact, and urgency.

You can choose to rank each item on a numerical scale for each criterion. For example, one slide would ask
you to rank Project A on urgency from least (1) to most (10). You can use a scale beginning with 1 and
ending with any number up to 10.

Alternatively, you can choose to compare items on the criteria by pairs. For example, one slide would ask
you whether Project A or Project B is more urgent.

You can include as many items as you wish. The results are displayed in a chart that ranks the items, as
shown below:
