  • A wildfire that roared with little warning into a Northern California city claimed two lives as thousands of people scrambled to escape.
  • The blaze leveled at least 500 structures in and around the city of Redding and was threatening nearly 5,000 more Friday. Entire neighborhoods have been left smoldering, and 37,000 people were under evacuation orders.
  • Fire officials warned that the blaze would probably burn deeper into urban areas before there was any hope of containing it.

REDDING, Calif. (AP) — A wildfire that roared with little warning into a Northern California city claimed two lives as thousands of people scrambled to escape before the walls of flames descended from forested hills onto their neighborhoods, leaving at least 500 structures destroyed in its wake, officials said Friday.

Residents who gathered their belongings in haste described a chaotic and congested getaway as the embers blew up to a mile ahead of flames and the fire leaped across the wide Sacramento River and torched subdivisions in Redding, a city of 92,000 about 100 miles south of the Oregon border.

Enlarge / Brains are gross. (credit: Adeel Anwar / Flickr)

The premiere of the second season of Westworld is a perfect time to ponder what makes us human. This is not new territory; such questions have long been dealt with in works of fiction, and they have appeared in science in the form of studies of creatures that have human-like characteristics—like consciousness—yet are not Homo sapiens.

These studies raise ethical questions whether the subject is an animal or an AI. Last May, a consortium of bioethicists, lawyers, neuroscientists, geneticists, philosophers, and psychiatrists convened at Duke to discuss how this question may apply to relatively new entities: brain “organoids” grown in a lab. These organoids can be either chimaera of human or animal cells or slices of human brain tissue. Will these lab-grown constructs achieve any sort of consciousness deserving of protection?

Why organoids?

If we ever want to understand, let alone cure, the very complex brain disorders that plague people—like schizophrenia, ASD, and depression—we need research models. And in order to be informative, these models must be accurate representations of the human brain. Yet as our models become more and more like the real thing (and for now, they are still quite a long way off), the problems with using them become so pronounced as to negate their utility—like Borges’ map.

Do you get in your own way during a job interview or while giving a presentation? If so, you might be wondering:

“What can I do to quickly explain something when in the moment?”

Thankfully, there are ways to do this and they are very simple ways. Author of Speaking Up without Freaking Out: 50 Techniques for Confident and Compelling Presenting, Matthew Abrahams informs us, “When you are in a spontaneous speaking situation, you have to do two things simultaneously,”

  1. Figure out what to say.
  2. Figure out how to say it.

Let’s examine 8 spontaneous speaking structures that allow you to become comfortable and respond immediately to any speaking situation.

What are Spontaneous Speaking Structures?

A spontaneous speaking structure is a way to tell a story. It is a way to explain anything quickly by using simple structures to frame a story.

“Structure sets you free.” – Matthew Abrahams

Here’s why structures set you free:

Speaking structures help you explain anything ad lib. They provide an easy way to structure our thinking and prevent us from freezing in the moment.

Abrahams informs us,

“You need to set expectations and structures do that.”

I highly recommend watching the following video (the video is long so I recommend you skip to 41 minutes in where spontaneous speaking structures are discussed in more detail):

8 Spontaneous Speaking Structures

Let’s now examine 8 spontaneous speaking structures:

1. What? So What? Now What?

Terry Borton’s Development Framework was constructed in 1970 and is a simple approach involving only three questions: What? So What? Now What? [1] I recently wrote about this framework in Razor-Sharp Thinking: the What-Why Method. This framework provides us a formula for answering questions.

  • What? What happened or what is emerging?
  • So What? Why is it important or what lessons can we learn from it?
  • Now What? What are we going to do next or what should we do moving forward?

2. Who? Why? What?

Abrahams provides an easy way for us to use Borton’s Development Framework when introducing someone by simply changing the What to Who.

  • Who? Who they are.
  • Why? Why the person is important.
  • What? What we are going to do next (i.e. listen to their presentation).

3. Problem/Opportunity – Solution – Benefit

Another powerful, yet extremely simple technique is the Problem (or Opportunity) – Solution – Benefit structure. Abrahams explains that this is a great technique to use when pitching or persuading someone.

  • Problem/Opportunity. What do you want to solve or what do you want to capture?
  • Solution. What are the steps to achieve it?
  • Benefit. What is the benefit to their organization?

4. ADD

Abrahams illustrates a simple approach to use during a question and answer period of a speech, presentation, or interview.

  • A: Answer questions concisely (condense your information into a few succinct words).
  • D: Detail the answer through an example (illustrate an example through the use of a metaphor or analogy).
  • D: Describe the value of your answer to the asker.

5. TAKE

Yet another example of a simple speaking structure offered by Abrahams is TAKE. This is a great approach to use when accepting recognition.

  • T: Thank your audience.
  • A: Acknowledge the award/accomplishment.
  • K: Keep the momentum going.
  • E: End with impact.

6. 1-3-1 Speech Structure

The authors of The Secret Memory Booster in Public Speaking offer a powerfully simple approach to learn, remember, and present information using the 1-3-1 approach.

  • 1: Idea The first step is to structure your idea through Prep (get their attention with questions, a story, a quote, or a startling statistic), Promise (specifically the benefits to your audience), and Path (indicate how they will get the promise or preview the main points).
  • 3: Themes or Main Points Next, outline your main points through the use of the following: SHARP, Power Phrase, Reflection, Application, Power Phrase, then Transition. SHARP = Story (anecdote, metaphor, or analogy), Humor, Activity, Reference/Quote, Photo/Prop
  • 1: Conclusion or Call to Action In your conclusion, use the following: Summary (call back to the main points), Q&A, Memorable (tie to the intro).

7. STAR

This next technique is perfect to use when answering the typical behavioral interviewing questions asked during a job interview. Behavioral interviewing is an approach used to assess a candidate’s past experience and to judge the response to similar situation on a future job; thus, it is used a predictor of future performance. [2] For example, say you are interviewing for a job and the interviewer asks,

“Describe a time when you had to…”

  • Instead of rambling through the question with an incoherent reply, try the STAR technique:
  • S: Situation Detail the background. Provide a context. Where? When?
  • T: Task Describe the challenge and expectations. What needed to be done? Why?
  • A: Action Elaborate your specific action. What did you do? How? What tools did you use?
  • R: Results Explain (quantify) the results: accomplishments, recognition, savings, etc.

8. What – Why – How Feedback

Lastly, the perfect structure for growing from feedback is the What – Why – How structure. Pay attention to the feedback you receive (from all around you – people, environment, etc.). Then ask the following:

  • What? What is going on? Which leads to an understanding of the Why.
  • Why? Why is this happening? Which leads us to invent new things (the How).
  • How? How can things get better? This then leads us to change our actions; thus, leading back to the What (for which the cycle never ends).

By following these 8 simple spontaneous speaking structures, you will find you can easily explain anything off the cuff. Each one of these speaking structures helps you structure your thinking and allows you to respond confidently in any situation.

They allow you to tell a story, set expectations for your audience, provide you a way to figure out what to say and figure out how to say it. Thus, a spontaneous speaking structure sets you free.

McLaren May Build Carbon Structures for Other Automakers https://briefnews.eu/tub-thumping-mclaren-may-build-carbon-structures-for-other-automakers/ https://briefnews.eu/tub-thumping-mclaren-may-build-carbon-structures-for-other-automakers/#respond Mon, 10 Jul 2017 21:08:27 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/tub-thumping-mclaren-may-build-carbon-structures-for-other-automakers/ McLaren tubThe press conferences that automakers call to report their financial results are never as exciting as the product launches where they let us whale on their spiffy new cars, and that’s doubly true for McLaren. Nevertheless, they often contain fascinating details. So it proved at McLaren’s numbers presser, conducted during the Goodwood Festival of Speed. Much was as we’d expected to hear: the company is doing well, sales increased by nearly 100 percent after the launch of the Sports Series last year, the U.S. remains the largest single market, buying 1139 cars, the company remains on track to build 5000 cars a year by the end of the decade…

–

But then the company’s Chief Financial Officer Paul Buddin dropped in a fascinating detail: The new plant in Sheffield, England, that will build McLaren’s next-generation carbon-fiber tubs will boast an annual capacity of 10,000 monocoque chassis (like that for the all-new 720S seen above) when it comes on stream at the end of 2019.

–

Keen to understand the difference between those two numbers, we cornered McLaren CEO Mike Flewitt after the conference. He said that much of the gap between a sales target of 5000 and production capacity of 10,000 is headroom to allow for any future sales expansion. “It would be very short-sighted to limit ourselves to 5000 cars,” he said. But then he all but admitted that McLaren aims to build carbon structures for other automakers.

Given McLaren’s long experience with carbon-bodied road cars, from the original F1 (above) onward, this makes a lot of sense. Flewitt suggested the company could become a supplier to other automakers looking for limited-run performance cars, either with carbon structures or even more extensive engineering projects.

–

“We won’t do it until we’re fully up and running ourselves,” he said, “but it is something that we are considering as an obvious expansion.”

–

–

We’ve already told you that McLaren’s next-generation architecture will be far more adaptable than the current one, potentially even scaling up enough to make a 2+2 model. The flexibility means the same core technology could be used to produce very different models from McLaren’s range. As more manufacturers move to lightweight technology, McLaren’s expertise could become a sizeable additional revenue stream for the company.
