"Yep, it’s rocket science, and we can help your grandmother understand it, all in a short elevator ride.”
We have all heard about the importance of developing a clear “elevator speech” in a way our grandmother (or uncle or next door neighbor) would understand. But in the day-to-day world of aerospace, climate, weather and other science and technology fields, it is easy to get caught in the jargon and the acronyms that dominate these professional communities, where it IS “rocket science”.
Narayan Strategy is here to help. We know government audiences – both those that love technical lingo (but maybe not your technical lingo) – and those that really do not appreciate what sounds to them like science babble.
For your work to be successful – you need to CONNECT. From first impressions to long term contacts, you need to have your information encapsulated in a way that engages and impresses your audience from start to finish.
Narayan Strategy can also help you connect across the globe. As work becomes ever more international, being able to connect culturally with business contacts that you may only see over Zoom becomes just as important as the content of your words. We have diverse experience across the world – from Belgium to Singapore to Zimbabwe – to help you connect.
