Simplify

Being an introvert with an Analytical social style, it takes almost nothing at all for me to over-complicate things. I’m getting ready to go to the Association for Talent Development (ATD) conference here in Minnesota. I looked at my material this morning and shook my head. “I really ought to get this across in just one page!” I said to myself. “When people want more detail, they will ask. After all, I’m telling people that I make simulations easy. I should simplify.”

My learning activity from 2009 was six pages long. I want to get the same impact on just one page. To make it simpler, I revised the Rapid Simulation Design template. It makes a nice complement to my Mad Libs®-style intro to simulations.

Check these out. (The links have the pdf versions.) I think you’ll find them useful, if you have any simulation work to do. Let me know if this is hitting the right level of simplicity.
