Duarte Response

In Duarteā€™s TED Talk, she first mentioned how everyone has unrecognized power within them. The power being the creation of having an idea. Ideas are able to create change and influence in the world. But the first step in making change is sharing your idea. Not sharing or communicating your idea will forever die with you and never be out in the open. But those who do share their ideas come to a fault because they are not communicated in the right way. How you communicate to the world can determine your ideas death or influence. The presenter has the role of the mentor not the hero. The mentor needs to speak as if they are guiding the audience to their idea. Duarte explains how there is a beginning, middle, and end to every good presentation. The beginning starts by establishing what is and what your idea could be. The beginning and middle consists of why your idea should fix problems and provide solutions. Just like sailing you will face resistance but your various solutions and fix will gain momentum in the audience. The end more than likely always ends with a poetic new bliss.
