The only thing I don't particularly agree with in this presentation is the focus on reuse of the domain model, I think the purpose of understanding is more important and that reuse is a possibly secondary goal. That is I would create a specific domain model, then possibly make it more generic if it needs to be reused.
In this video I really like the use of the notes to further detail possible rules.
I would say talking to steakholders/experts are probably key finding a good domain model (unless you yourself is an expert). Also has some questions you can think about.
