Development Series - Effective Presentations
This workshop will help
participants develop basic presentation skills and increase their comfort
when faced with the task of transmitting knowledge or views to an audience. Promotional Overview
This workshop will give the
attendee a basic road map to guarantee successful presentations every time he
or she is called upon to address an audience. No matter the subject matter or
the client audience, preparing a presentation will become easy when the basic
tools reviewed during the day are applied systematically. The instructor will
help participants brainstorm their own experiences of poor presentations and
the most useful remedies to ensure winning performances in the future. Active
participation along with workshop material will allow the attendee to leave
with basic skills that will enhance his or her presentations. A few simple
techniques will be rehearsed to help attendees in impromptu situations. No
pre-requisites are needed here. Participants will be taken from A to Z on the
art of making a presentation that leaves the audience wanting more. Instructor
