#2I am not sure I agree so much with the presentation, but the mocking of the "Stanford alumnus experienced exec" is worth it for the smile.

I think it's a good read from slide #29 on if just for being food for thought.

#4I agree with the overall premise, but this presentation had one of the lowest information densities I've seen in a long while.
The point could have been relayed in 5 or less slides, not 100.

I too thought it was good "food for thought" but sometimes have concern about the "analysis paralysis" these sorts of things can create.
This might be required for larger investments and bigger projects, but sometimes there's just no substitute for just doing something.
FOR EXAMPLE look at AwesomenessReminders - I'm honestly flabbergasted that it's as successful as it is. He recently posted that he now has 750 paying customers, if each of them bough his minimum program and didn't renew that's something around $7500 (right?)
Who thinks that would have survived a multi round business plan customer segmentation / value proposition etc.. etc...
However - he simply had the idea, did it cheap and quick and it's turned out to be pretty sweet. I find that really inspirational.
Was a great example of the 'best case' scenario - but - there's still plenty of room for an 'elbow grease & just do it' solution.

#6Slide #19: Mike get's started on
Correction: "Mike gets started on..."
Moral of the story: Do not make easily-corrected spelling or grammar mistakes in your slide deck.
Bonus: If you hired me, nothing but flawlessly written English would go out under your company's banner.

#7We use these two books for eRes, the student-run entrepreneur incubator here at the University of Michigan. They really compliment one another, and this presentation gives a good overview that ties the two together.

I don't know. Normally I agree but it gives this slideshow a certain charm in this case. Probably because it told more of a story than a slideshow.
Other than near the end, I thought it actually did a good job of emphasizing it's point. It just lacked that big revelatory surprise at the end to give it that bang.
