💡 Pro Tips

  • People remember activities, not slides. 70% activities, 30% teaching.
  • Energy dip at minute 40-50 — plan most engaging activity there
  • Have 20% more content than needed, be ready to cut 20%

✨ Example Output

OPENING HOOK: 'Write the ONE decision your team made that took the longest. Don't share yet.' [1 min solo]
'Compare with your neighbor. Patterns?' [2 min pairs]
'What did you notice?' [2 min full room]

ACTIVITY 2: 'Decision Sprint' (25 min)
Groups of 4-5 apply framework to real scenario, present in 60 seconds.
