It’s the end of the year… time for the holidays, friends, and really uncomfortable conversations between bosses and subordinates.
To honor this awkward annual ritual, I thought I’d dust off what could be the best video Elle & I have done together: my performance review of her during her kindergarten year.
Pay attention, you may just learn something:

Great video Jason, and very posh website. See you next Tuesday!
Thanks, Topher. See you at The Second City!
Jason: Thanks for helping people break out of the business-speak. Clear, simple communication — you know, like we’re real people? — that’s always more effective. Great work highlighting the difference.
@Kristi—Yes, after analyzing the strategic implications of typical communication formats, and comparing the results of the speaking methodologies used with both the expected and actual returns achieved by those methodologies (measured as Return on Conversation, or ROC), I concluded that the key factors in maximizing ROC and ensuring optimal receptivity was to: speak plain.
Imagine that.
Good luck with the rest of Launch Summit!
