Clinton Oyelami
CLEAR
The message which
the you want to
convey must be
simple, easy to
understand and
systematically framed
to retain its
meaningfulness
CORRECT COMPLETE
Communication is the
base for decision
making. If the
information is
incomplete, it may
lead to wrong
decisions
PRECISE
The message sent
must be short and
concise to facilitate
straightforward
interpretation and
take the desired steps
RELIABILITY
You must be sure
from your end that
whatever you're
saying is right by your
knowledge.
COMPASSION
Make an attempt to
understand the other
person. Listen
carefully to their
feedback, and put
your own
assumptions aside
The information
communicated must
not be vague or false
in any sense; it must
be free from errors
and grammatical
mistakes
Characteristics of an EC
checklist
Stay excited all through the pitch
Make sure you’ve got a pitch deck
Simplify your financials
Keep your story short
Make use of nice visuals in your deck
Believe you’ve got the best idea
thank you
