Reading laws of simplicity – Trust

1. Provide an example of a situation where you have to have trust – in the same vein as the author in his swimming lesson example. What made you trust in this situation and how did you feel?
Plane pilot, with Qantas there has been no crashes therefore I trust this airline
2. Where in our exhibition do we need to instill trust? Give examples. How are we going to achieve this?
Trust in each other; get a hand from other students to make sure everything gets done to the best of our ability. If we trust, we have comfort. Trust our audience is smart present complex ideas, professionalism.
3. What strategies are used to instill trust? Examples? Where do we need to employ this in uphere? How are we going to do this?
Lead by example. Showing people your work and also showing them other students work.
4. If you could “undo” any aspect of the preparation for the exhibition to-date, what would you “undo”? With this in mind, what would would you change now in your preparation strategy to overcome having to “undo” anything?
The logo procedure, change the day that the exhibition is on because it is on the last day of the mindle markets.
