The Feedback of Our Presentation about NGO

Hello, after we did the presentation we got the feedback from classmates and teacher.
These are the feedback of the presentation.

【About the name of our NGO -Flourish Japan through Olympics-】

• Neutral...1 

Although there are not so answers for this, I think that the name was not so "catchy". In order to let people fascinated with our activities, we should have thought more catchy name, not the normal name.

【Are the mission and the goals important for our NGO?】

• Important...4
• Neutral...1

As for the mission and the goals, I thought that we could persuade audiences with strong evidences of good points to host the Tokyo Olympics. However, we could not think about those who disagree with hosting the Tokyo Olympcis. In order to let people who disagree with Tokyo Olympics think about the good points for hosting the Olympics, we should have thought about the bad points and the solution to deal with these points.

【Uniqueness of our groups】

• Absolutely Unique...2
• Unique...4
• Neutral...3

I found that our activities will unique. Although it is very simple way to hold the events and meetings, the different concepts of each events may have made our NGO activities unique.

【Fundraising Activities... Is it sufficient?】

• Insufficient...1
• Neutral...1
• Sufficient...6
• Comments; It's hard to see how enough money would be raised through our methods.

I think that most of audiences thought that it is sufficient to do our fund raising activities. However, in this way it is difficult to gather the funds from those who disagrees with hosting the Tokyo Olympics and to help the construction of Tokyo National Stadium. So we should have thought about the way to gather the money from those, such as the promotional activities through media before the fund raising. In addition, we should think about the participational fee from participants with a little expensive costs.

【Is it adequate to do the methods regarding to Media?】

• Absolutely Adequate...2
• Adequate...8
• Neutral...1

From this result, I found that our media activities will have an effect to let people be interested in our NGO, through web site and the broadcasting our video on TV or during the events.

【Did you feel persuaded to join us?】

• Very persuaded...1
• Persuaded...9
• Neutral...2
• Comment; It's hard for me to believe that people will happily donate money toward the construction of the national stadium and other facilities.

From this results, most of the audiences felt persuaded. However, as I wrote in this entry, we had to think about those who disagree with hosting the Olympics in 2020 and the tax problems regarding to the fund raising. I think that we should hold the events which both those who agree with Olympics and those who disagree with it.

【Quality of PowerPoint】

• Excellent...4
• Good...7

As for the PowerPoint, there will be no problem of lacking of the explanation of our NGO. I was so happy to get these responses because I made my PowerPoint and the promotion video so hard!!

【Comments we got (Quotes)】

• Your survey results were very well presented
• It was a well prepared promotion PPT
• They should act for saving us from terrorisms
• I'm excited to 2020 Tokyo Olympics so it was interesting
• The Olympics are world-wide issue. I think this NGO can get members from overseas too.
• I really think that Tokyo Olympics in 2020 will be good for Japan.
• It would be better by promoting it in various ways.
• The content was a little bit vague since there were so many words. Anyway, your basic thoughts were stable, I think.
• It is not about the NGO, but one of the speakers talked very fast, that I had hard time to catch up with her speech.

I thought that we got a lot of reactions to the Promotion PPT. However, I thought that I spoke too fast because I had a lot of points to talk about, it may have made our presentation a little vague and difficult.  Also, our NGO saw the Tokyo Olympics from single perspectives, so we should have looked at the problem from a lot of perspectives.

Through these feedback from our classmates and the teacher, we can improve our NGO, Flourish Japan through Olympics by creating the events which both those who agree with Olympics and those who disagree with it, and also talk about the bad points for hosting the Olympics. If we do so, we may be able to find the solution to deal with these points and it will lead to the persuasion people who disagree with Olympics to think that Tokyo Olympics will have advantages for Japan somewhat. Also, we should have looked at the problem from a lot of perspectives. So not only the media and the simple fund raising, we should have planned to hold the events at the English facilities, such as the English Villages and the events which will focus on the terrorism at Japan and discuss the solution for the dangerous terrorism in Japan through the events and the special lectures by one of the members of Self-Defense Forces and as for the publicity we should promote our activities via YouTube or some devices such as TV, radios and the newspapers. By doing this, we may have been able to improve the function of NGO more.

I think that we could communicate with audiences what we wanted to tell, however, I thought that there are too many information about NGO and because of the time problem, I spoke so fast that I made our presentation difficult to understand clearly. In order to prevent from the difficulty to understand our missions and the projects, we should have told our activities more simply, clearly and easily to understand, but more in detail. In order to persuade audiences more, we should have focused on the smaller points what we should tell about. Although there were no misunderstanding from audiences as long as we looked at the feedback, I thought that there were some points which audiences thought difficult to understand our projects or activities because of the very complicated and fast explanation by me.

From these feedback, we could mostly persuade audiences to join us, but in terms of the complexity and the single perspectives of us, some of the information could not be told well. So we should think about our activities and the simple promotion more.

Actually, this is our last blog post. I wish you also think about Tokyo Olympics in 2020.
Thank you for your reading!!!
