Characters |
| (Principal)
John Zeck |
Gender: Male |
Age: 45-55 |
| John
Zeck is an executive at a large company. He
manages teams of people and ultimately has it
pretty good. He’s upper-middle management, which
means he’s comfortable asking other people to do
things, but he’s not a technical person so he
doesn’t always completely understand the
ramifications of his requests. What he does
understand is that he needs to perform and get
results to continue his success. John's tone:
Direct, Honest, Friendly American (no obvious
'Canadian' accents) Clean-cut Businessman
Wardrobe: Suit, Shirt (not white) & Tie |
|
SIDES:
We will focus
primarily on the “request”. The “translation” is provided for
subtext.
Talent should be
prepared to read both Request and Translation for both scenarios
1.
Request:
Hi, we need an
online form placed on our site next week for this acquisition
campaign. I’m not sure about how it’s exactly supposed to work,
but we can just figure that out as we go along.
Translation:
Hi, I am the reason
that 50% of technology projects fail. We’ve been planning this
for months, but it has to launch next week. I also won’t
understand when it’s not delivered exactly as I imagined it in
my head.
2.
Request:
I’ve just gotten
approval to push my new corporate communications platform to the
top of the development schedule. This will be a cutting edge,
revolutionary project that is going to take this company to the
next level. Let’s regroup this afternoon to discuss the details.
Translation:
My teenage daughter
thought a FaceBook app would be cool, and now so does the CMO.
Since we have no way of matching resources to strategy, I got
this thing approved by sheer force of desperation and the
awesome sound of my voice. Thanks so much.
