In this Kaapi with Ravi corporate jargon cartoon, a well-intentioned “data storyteller” transforms a 3% revenue dip into a “resilient growth narrative.”
The problem? Somewhere between the rearward-adjusted benchmarks and macro headwinds, the truth quietly resigns from the meeting.
Modern workplaces love a good narrative — insight-driven storytelling, data democratization, emotional connection through metrics — but sometimes it’s less about clarity and more about choreography.
There’s a thin line between effective data storytelling and corporate jargon, and many cross it wearing confidence and buzzwords in equal measure.
This cartoon takes a playful jab at that fine balance — reminding us that numbers don’t need drama, and truth doesn’t need a TED Talk.
