If you don't get the Complication right, you can end up spending hours building a presentation around the wrong thing.

The SCR Complication Finder + Swipe File is a shortcut for one very specific part of building your presentation: figuring out what the Complication could be.

Because once you're looking at your Situation, it's not always obvious where to go next.

You might know what's happening.

You might know what you want to recommend.

But what is the challenge, risk, urgency, or decision point sitting between the two?

Here's what you get in your download: 

 

Prompts that help you uncover the challenge, risk, urgency, or decision point hiding in your specific situation 

Targeted prompts that help you explore the angles that could become your Complication. You can start asking the right questions immediately—without having to invent the questions yourself.

Complication patterns that give you a starting point when you don't know where to look 

These patterns help you recognize the different ways a Situation can create a reason for action, so you can quickly spot the type of Complication that might fit your presentation instead of staring at a blank page trying to come up with one from scratch.

Examples of Complications from different presentation situations 

See how Complications can look across different kinds of presentations—from making a recommendation to asking for resources to presenting a business problem. The examples give you something concrete to react to, adapt, and build from, rather than leaving you with another definition and a blank page.
