List Slides

What are list slides good for?
- Good for when you have a ‘theme’ or ‘category’ for the slide and you need to explain different aspects of that category. You would name the category at as the title of the slide, e.g. ‘Values of L2W’, and each of the drop-downs would be the name of value, e.g. ‘Compassion’, and in the expanded drop down you would detail what compassion means at L2W.
