Elevator Pitch No.2

Reflection:


Based on the feedback I received from the previous elevator pitch, I was told to speak more clearly and utilize my hand movements better. In this pitch, I tried to use my hand movements when properly needed to emphasize the demonstration of my idea. I was also told to be more aware of my timing because I made my previous pitch a little over 1:40. However in this pitch, I really focused on what I was going to say and tried not to speak too slowly or too quickly in order to reach the 90 second mark. I believe I only went over by 2 seconds in this one.

    H Ilana,
    Hand movements and gestures can be difficult to control. Something that helped me was to get into the habit of standing still and only use movements when you are sure it adds to your presentation. Most likely you will naturally move so you don't need to worry about getting stiff but creating the habit of standing still definitely smooths over the look of the speech.

My Secret Sauce

1.      I am a very introspective person that is consistently analyzing my own thoughts and actions. I think this is my most favorable and important quality because it allows me to be aware of the things that are affecting me emotionally and improve upon those feelings. If there is something that is bothering me, I always take the time to figure out the reason behind my emotions and determine if it should bother me to that extent. I am also an independent individual that knows how to handle my own decisions by myself and not wait for other people to make those decisions for me. Although I will listen to the people who truly care about me, I typically do not let my friends or even my family influence my decisions because I am one to want to make the judgement myself.  I think being able to stand on my own and not get swayed into what others are saying or doing gives me the opportunity to know myself and the things I value. I am an honest person that will...

13A- Reading Reflection

Coco Chanel  Lisa Chaney 1.      I was surprised by Coco Chanel’s boldness in her fashion designs during the 20 th century. She introduced a more progressive style and influenced women to feel more liberating in the clothes they wore. Chanel’s rebellious approach contributed to the idea that women were more than just housewives and were just as capable as men to be assimilated into a working society. I really admired Coco Chanel’s fearlessness in introducing fashion as a unique empowerment for women and men. She defied the generally accepted clothing of the 20 th century by making designs that were wearable for both genders. During that time, women were expected to look pretty and delicate while men were intended to appear to be masculine and strong. However, Chanel wanted to change this fashion concept in society by creating designs that would highlight the elegance and powerfulness of women. The thing I least admired about the famed design...

Idea Napkin No.2

Who I am: I am determined and a goal-driven individual who knows how to overcome any obstacles that I face. I know how to connect and collaborate well with people to get a specific task done. If I were to start my business, this would impact my personal life because I would be investing my time and money in trying to hire the right people for the job and developing a project that would be beneficially impactful for the people in the city. What am I offering: I am offering an app called Mark n’Park that is connected to a parking garage to make a more efficient and stress free environment for drivers to find available parking spaces. When drivers first drive into the parking garage, they will receive a ticket to an assigned parking spot so they do not have to spend time looking for availability. Once the driver parks into their spot, they download the Mark n’Park in which they can scan or manually input their parking spot’s information which also reduces the time they spend ...
