Most projects will have stakeholders.
0:00
These are people who have invested time,
energy, or
0:03
money into their team's efforts.
0:06
As a resolve, you'll likely have
to present to those stakeholders.
0:09
No need to dread,
we now have a good story to tell.
0:14
So tell it with conviction.
0:19
It's okay to show your excitement,
even if you aren't 100% sure of the idea.
0:21
Be honest about the areas that
you've not fully explored though.
0:26
Three important things to
remember when structuring your
0:31
stakeholder presentation are,
one, simple story.
0:36
Keep the story tight and easy to follow.
0:40
Two, maintain empathy, use your users
0:43
name to maintain empathy with your
audience and guide the narrative.
0:48
And three, solve the pain, explain how
your solution solves for user's pain.
0:52
Here's a few other pointers.
1:00
Time management, be sure to allocate
time to better develop the story so
1:02
you're telling the points
that matter most for you.
1:08
For instance, you may wanna call
out stable Sarah's reaction
1:11
when she checks out, but remove portions
where she's exploring the site.
1:15
The key is acknowledging what
your audience cares about.
1:20
Here's another one, story first.
1:25
Attractive visuals may
distract from your story.
1:28
So consider the fidelity
with which you communicate.
1:31
If you're early in the process,
keep the fidelity low.
1:35
And set those expectations when
you're introducing your story.
1:39
If you're further along, then higher
fidelity visuals will make sense.
1:43
Getting feedback, go into the presentation
with the intent on receiving feedback.
1:48
Rather than opening up
the floor of asking for
1:55
general feedback,
once your presentation's ended,
1:58
begin the question and
2:00
answer section with fairly directed
questions aimed at the top stakeholders.
2:02
This will let them know what you
actually want feedback on, and
2:08
you will maintain the ability
of running the meeting.
