Great video. Thank you!

Using the OODA loop is the most effective way to develop the action titles. If a title is not a clear observation that the business cares about, orientation is does not fit with the system of thinking at the client, decision options and tradeoffs are not clear or an action that is not SMART, don’t bother with the slide.
significant key words, suggest, imply, indicates, refer, point to , associate..The term “implication” refers to the indirect consequences or effects that result from a specific action or any statement.
Nice and well explained the concept... thanks a lot!
Most welcome!

Amazing as always, a request, could you make a video on flow of the presentation in the sense that how to decide the order of the slides to make sure they flow like a logical story (apart from the SCQA framework)
Great suggestion, I'll add it to the list 😊
Really enjoyed this, what are your opinions on the title being a general description with an action title in the subtitle?
Thanks Dave! Do you mean like the Oliver Wyman example? I think that structure is best used when the first line describes the chapter/section you’re in, then underneath you have the slide action title
Dan, this is really useful stuff ("Subscribed"!).
Would you say that there are specific types of presentation (mostly data-based) that are well suited to the McKinsey (pyramid, SCR) format, but others (e.g. teaching) maybe not so much? Any advice as to what to use when? Thanks!
Hmm maybe! Most of my experience is with corporate reports, so I tend to use SCR in almost all situations. And thanks for the sub! 😊
hi dan, does this apply this in thesis presentation?
I don’t see why not! 👍🏼
I may be completely off-base here, but at 5:20 you state that the most important parts of the slide are panels 2 and 3. I think they are not. They are consequences of panel 1. As a result, panels 1 and 3 are important. I would even leave panel 2 to be an appendix slide. it makes this slide at 5:20 overly complex. The slide after it (at 6:20) will in my experience only generate questions and confusion in a board room. Your commentary does not immediately resonate with me as a senior corporate member. When I see such examples in a presentation, I will discard the content quickly as "consultant-speak" The next slide at 07:25 talks about disruption, and yet, as an exec, I just see an overall parallel evolution. No disruption...
I think you have the right ideas, but the examples are, at least for me, not really resonating.
I do like your "so what" principle, and to be specific and to have the slide action title supported by the body.
Appreciate the feedback, thanks for taking the time to write it out!
@@DanGalletta I truly appreciate your response. Keep doing your stuff man!
