An oral presentation would best simulate the candidate's ability to make a coherent and persuasive report in front of a group of top managers. A presentation would give the candidate the opportunity to showcase their communication skills, their ability to organize information effectively, and their ability to persuade through verbal means. The other options (assessment center, in-basket exercise, and role play) may assess other skills, but they would not be as effective in assessing the specific skill of giving a persuasive report.
