Complexity.

The enemy of effective #communication.

"But it's too complex to simplify into three key points!"

"My topic's different - to do it justice, I'll need more time."

"I'm an engineer not a brand consultant - I can't speak in soundbites."

Well-intentioned objections, true enough.

My response?

Tough.

The spoken word and complexity simply don't mix.

Clarity is key.

If there are 30 elements, focus on the 2 or 3 that are most important.

Or most time-critical.

Or... [insert reason that is meaningful for the audience]

After all, if you make even one idea/point stick, you've succeeded where most presenters and leaders fail.

I can now absolutely see why you have the reputation that you do.

To say I am thankful is an understatement.
