And here I thought you were talking about DnD at MangoCon.
We could role a D20 to determine the manager's reaction to your presentation based on your charisma score.

Where a roll of 20 he just picks you up and throws you out of his office?

Or a roll of 1.

A low roll would be a good reaction IMO.
Manager rolls a D20, gets 1, "You don't get yelled, idea accepted"

You've never played DnD I'm guessing?

@coliver I have, but I'm also assuming the manager has to play.

Nah, in DnD a roll of 20 is a critical success, which almost always succeeds, whereas a roll of 1 is a critical failure and always fails.

As the manager would be an NPC of sorts where high rolls he gets to destroy you.

But if it is based on your charisma score you would roll the die and add you charisma... wow. You know what nevermind I just realized I'm arguing DnD on a public forum.

"How to sell ______ to your boss/customer."
This would be perfect for new folks starting their career. Better yet: "How to sell to your boss/customer by adding value or saving money for the company.

This made me giggle, but yeah, you're right, although if the roll was a mid roll, the DM would probably roll as the NPC manager to see if you were effective.

This would be a contested roll, your CHA vs his WIS

Also great for people new to role playing as an added bonus.

Lots of these soft skills are developed early on (for me anyway) doing crappy jobs and selling garbage.
Comes down to listening often. Someone will almost always tell you what they want through body language, direct verbal, indirect verbal or even written. You have to be open to receiving it though.

It's not only soft skills, although those are definitely important. It's also just business skills - knowing what matters, putting the RIGHT information in front of the right people, identifying the stakeholders, etc.
