Probably not. B ut you have had to sit through presentations where speakers believed they had all of the above. You were probably bored and potentially missed valua ble information.\n\nCommunicating technical information is challenging. Yo u have nuanced problems to address and a limited amount of time to communi cate the solutions. Similarly\, your audience cannot act on your informati on unless you acknowledge their constraints – typically the time and mon ey involved in implementing your solutions.\n\nIn this presentation\, I re late the qualities of the project management triangle—fast\, good\, and cheap—to professional communication. Understanding what your audience ne eds and expects\, allows you to tailor a message that responds to their co nstraints and generates results. I also discuss how these qualities can be combined based on audience analysis skills. You can apply these strategie s to any communication situation\, whether that be a 60-second elevator pi tch with a manager or a formal presentation to a group of engineering coll eagues.\n\nCo-sponsored by: IEEE Montréal Section\, IEEE Young Profession als Montréal\, IEEE Student Branches of Concordia University\, École Pol ytechnique de Montréal\, and McGill University\, and IEEE Montréal Indus trial Relations Committee.\n\nSpeaker(s): <p><strong>Dr. Ryan Boettger</st rong></p>\, \n\nRoom: EV 2.309\, Bldg: EV Building\, Concordia University \, 1515 Saint-Catherine St West \, Montréal \, Quebec\, Canada\, H3G 2W1 LOCATION:Room: EV 2.309\, Bldg: EV Building\, Concordia University \, 1515 Saint-Catherine St West \, Montréal \, Quebec\, Canada\, H3G 2W1 ORGANIZER:amy@infieldscientific.com SEQUENCE:16 SUMMARY:Do you want it fast\, good\, or cheap?
