| Communicate, Create, and Collaborate |
| |
| |
| This newsletter brings together three ideas that shape how we communicate, create, and collaborate. Chantal Bossé’s insights on mastering PowerPoint remind us that clarity on the screen begins with clarity of thought. A strong elevator pitch builds on that foundation, distilling a message into one memorable line.
And when we look at history’s most creative teams, we see how shared purpose and smart collaboration amplify both storytelling and execution. This issue explores how these elements work together — clear messages, sharp visuals, and collaborative thinking — to help you communicate with impact and create work that stands the test of time. |

| The Elevator Pitch in One Sentence |
| |
 |
| |
| Too many speakers test their audiences’ patience and tolerance by delivering speeches or presentations that go on too long. Beleaguered audiences have little recourse other than tuning, or walking out. Nowhere is prolixity more counterproductive than in “The Elevator Pitch”—the single sentence that defines a company’s business— named to refer to the
way you’d describe your business if you stepped into an elevator and suddenly saw a potential client that you’ve been trying to land. |

| Discover how to craft a powerful one-sentence elevator pitch using clarity, brevity, and a unique selling proposition |

We’re All Going to Experience Bloopers: by Lisa Braithwaite
"We’re all going to experience bloopers on stage. For most of us, millions of people around the world won’t be watching. But our ability to exhibit grace and resilience under pressure and a sense of humor, and to understand that we’re all human, will go far to entertain and satisfy our audience – and perhaps give our presentation that extra luster that people will remember long after it’s over."

| Learning from History’s Creative Teams |
| |

| Since the mid-1800s, technology has changed beyond recognition – from developing electrical grids to computing in the cloud, from mechanical calculators to artificial intelligence.
