State the problem
Contextualize when, where, why,
and how it comes about
Highlight what pain or negative
impact it creates and/or what
opportunity it opens up

Highlight how you can use your scholarship
and academic understanding in an accessible
way to deal with the problem
Provide novelty and innovation in how you
address the problem (don't just regurgitate
well-understood approaches)
State what you are going to do before you
actually do it; allow your readers to
understand your process first and then follow
your process

Create and present a
simple, comprehensible,
and memorable
structure, framework,
process, or perspective
for getting to the
solution
Ground your solution in scholarship
Make your means of getting to a
solution extremely clear, easy to use,
and easy to remember
Work through the structure, framework,
process, or perspective systematically
with the readers
Use accessible, understandable
language and explanations

Provide concrete
examples and
anecdotes
Provide real or fictitious examples
to show how your solution works
or to show how drastic the
problem you're addressing is in
practice
Real, recent examples from the
press work well
Examples from your own research
can also work well

ANNUAL CONFERENCE 2019
Presentations are communication tools that can be lectures.
Develop graphics or
tables that simply
convey your message
Make it easy for readers to digest and
remember your core ideas
Try packaging ideas in one or two figures or
tables

Offer prescriptive advice, but couple that with
a discussion that addresses contigencies,
complexities, and other applications
Give managers and students something they can use
immediately
Highlight that your proposal may not always work out as
one would expect; discuss how things might go wrong
and the conditions under which prescriptions might not
work out
Consider alternative applications and opportunities for
what you have proposed; where else might it be
applicable?

Focus on action
Provide a clear, unambiguous message for
practitioners and/or teachers
