Who is it for? Creatives and anyone who has to communicate ideas.
Overview
Preparing your idea for its big day
So, you’ve had a great idea and you love it. Well done. Now the tough stuff starts. Now everyone else gets involved. It can get messy. If you want to protect your idea you’re going to need more than your creative skills. In this session you’ll be introduced to the systems that clients use to evaluate ideas. Then you’ll prepare yourself to deal with them.
You’ll learn how to keep focused on the essential elements of your ideas, how to stay flexible and how to negotiate without losing your way, or your temper. You’ll emerge cool headed and clear thinking, and your ideas will be grateful, very grateful.
The Benefits
A clear understanding of the distinction between idea and execution
The ability to summarise ideas succinctly and with clarity
An understanding of the systems that clients use to judge ideas
