Road of
Trials
You suck at presentations
BUT YOU’RE HERE TODAY
Your teammates have boring ideas
BUT YOU’RE ON A VAST CAMPUS
You only want to work on the project
BUT YOU NEED DISCIPLINE
There’s never enough time
BUT YOU MAKE TIME FOR WHAT’S IMPORTANT
Life is hard.

• Use visual aids (that help, not hinder)
• Leverage your latent storytelling skills
• Leverage your latent storytelling skills

The Approach
“Practice brings improvement”
You get to know your presentation, a bit too well
You take it with you for drinks
You might have it at the gym
When people are sharing Hailey v Selena drama on TikTok, you’re sharing snippets of your pres
You refer to it as pres now.
The Ordeal
• By the time you get here,
if you’ve really been on a
journey, the last major
hurdles will appear
bigger than they really
are.
The Ordeal
• Breathe (deeply, a few
times)
• Visualize a good ending
• Practice with helpful
people
In the end
• Treat your presentations like they matter
• You’ll find that in order to get to build the great things, you have to
convince someone using the tools we described
• Questions?

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. The hero's journey is a storytelling structure that can be traced back to ancient myths and legends. It typically consists of eight stages: The Call to Adventure: The hero is presented with a challenge or task. Refusal of the Call: The hero initially resists the challenge, often due to fear or self-doubt. Supernatural Aid: The hero receives assistance from a mentor or guide, who helps them on their journey. Crossing the Threshold: The hero leaves their comfort zone and begins their journey in earnest. The Road of Trials: The hero faces obstacles and challenges along the way, often learning important lessons and developing new skills. The Ordeal: The hero reaches the moment of greatest challenge and must face their greatest fears or enemies. The Reward: The hero emerges victorious and receives a reward or boon for their efforts. The Return: The hero returns to their community with newfound knowledge and skills, using their experiences to make a positive impact.
