Success vs Failure

How do you succeed in communicating your idea effectively?

Part One

Select two podcasts from the podcast pool and listen.

  1. Who do you think communicated more effectively? Why?
  2. Did the podcast you enjoy better convey a positive or negative message? Were they thoughtful? Why? What strategies did they use to communicate their idea?

Part Two

Think back to question you are answering. Write a press release to generate excitement and to get publicity about your idea. State why you have an idea that will change people’s views and make them think.

Test out your press release on a peer, family member, on social media or even a member of the local media. See how far it can go!
