If you have an idea or started an initiative, are you able to communicate this clearly to someone in the time it takes to ride the elevator together?
It is important that you can for two reasons.
First, it helps you to fully understand what you want to do or are trying to do. The more clarity you have, the more purposeful you can be with your actions.
Second, it helps the receiver of your pitch know what action they need to take. To achieve what you want in life, you need people to help and support you. It’s no good sharing your thoughts with someone but leaving them wondering what you really mean or want.
A clear elevator pitch will help you make the most of every introduction and chance encounter along your journey.
So why don’t we try this exercise now? We’ve just hopped onto the elevator together, and you have 60 seconds to explain what you want to achieve. Go for it!
