Let's Practice on the Mic!

Elevator Speech

Using Open Ended Questions to Guide Conversation

"An elevator pitch is a brief, persuasive speech... to spark interest in what your organization does. A good elevator pitch should last no longer than a short elevator ride of 20 to 30 seconds, hence the name.

They should be interesting, memorable, and succinct. They also need to explain what makes you – or your organization is."
