We should acknowledge that constantly training and re-training management and co-workers regarding the value of technical writing is one of our professional responsibilities.

Steve doesn't say what the presentation is for. Hopefully,
his audience is students and he's presenting technical
communications as a potential career path choice.
If he's doing this for a corporate presentation because
his management seems to need one, I'm with you.
