Pecha Kucha
PKs are– 20x20 = 20 slides and
20 seconds each– Image friendly– Well-rehearsed
(unless you are a PK ninja)
PKs are not– Manually advanced– Text heavy– Off-the-cuff,
extemporaneous babbling

• Battledecks– Extemporaneous speakers welcome; shy flowers
need not apply• Lightning rounds– Say it quick and to the point!

Elevator talks
• What is an elevator talk?– In business terms, a 30-60 second pitch for
a product
• But I don’t have a “product” to pitch!– Yes you do! What is it?

Elevator talks
• Your elevator talk should contain:–A bold opening statement–A clear and concise explanation– Statistics or data that support your claim–An invitation
