3 tips · 1 category
Tip 01 · Point of view
State your recommendation and the reason behind it
What to do
Ronin opens with giving an opinion confidently rather than defaulting to “I don’t know” or repeating others.
Why it may help
A reasoned point of view gives the group something concrete to evaluate.
Practical adaptation · verify your details
“Based on the pilot data, I recommend option B; the largest uncertainty is vendor capacity.”
When it may not fit
Confidence does not mean certainty; say when the evidence is incomplete and what could change your view.
Independent cross-check
Salesforce executive guidance supports a clear recommendation tied to evidence and the audience’s need.
Tip 02 · Disagreement
Disagree with the idea while acknowledging the concern
What to do
The video addresses fear of conflict and the risk of coming across as too aggressive.
Why it may help
Acknowledging a concern can keep the discussion focused on the decision rather than personal conflict.
Practical adaptation · verify your details
“I understand the timeline concern. I see a different risk in the current forecast; here is the evidence.”
When it may not fit
Empathy does not require agreement or concealment of a material risk.
Independent cross-check
Salesforce advises understanding stakeholders and communicating in ways suited to the conversation.
Tip 03 · Clarity
Organize your response before adding supporting detail
What to do
Ronin’s framework encourages communicating thoughts clearly and making a contribution others can follow.
Why it may help
A clear structure helps the audience separate the answer from its explanation.
Practical adaptation · verify your details
Use: answer first, one reason, relevant evidence, and the open question.
When it may not fit
Avoid labeling one format as the only “executive” style; different contexts call for different depth and tone.

UOW recommends signposting and organizing main points for the audience.
