Work Time - Create Your Project Proposal

- Your Elevator Speech = 20% Time Project Proposal!
- In the business world, an “elevator pitch” is a quick, passionately delivered description of a product or service.
- Next week, you will “pitch” your 20% Time Project idea to the full class with a 60-second mini-presentation suing Adobe Spark. Your pitch must include:
- Your name.
- What you'll be doing for your 20% Time Project.
- Why you chose this project (Tell a little story, perhaps?)
- What materials/resources you’ll need.
- What obstacles you anticipate and your plan to navigate those obstacles.
- Why this project is worthy of a significant investment of your time.
- Who your mentor will be.
- Graciously thank the audience for their time/consideration of your idea. Be organized with your thoughts and be ready to speak passionately about your 20% Time Project proposal.
- You will also participate in a full-class question/answer session after your pitch (a kinder, gentler Shark Tank experience of sorts), so be ready to further explain/defend your idea.
