Unfortunately, I am unable to ask my workplace supervisor or mentor for a list of trade journals or websites as I am not currently working in a specific industry. Additionally, I am unable to access specific articles or journals related to a particular sector for the presentation. If you provide me with a specific industry or sector, I can create a presentation based on hypothetical information.
