Advanced Presentation Skills

Advanced Presentation Skills

This course is designed for people who are already giving presentations as part of their work or outside interests. It looks to hone their existing presentation skills and go that one step further to enable them to create the perfect presentation.  
 
Think back to a time when you were in the audience at a presentation. Perhaps the speaker was well-informed and articulate. Perhaps the subject matter should have been of interest to you, but your attention wandered. You were not preoccupied when you sat down at the beginning of the talk, but you really had to concentrate hard in order to focus on the subject matter. If this has happened to you then you may have blamed yourself. Your attention wandered, your thoughts drifted into distraction and you were more than relieved when the presentation came to an end. Why?

Unless you are Boris Johnston or incredibly charismatic, you will not win any favours from the audience by losing your way, losing your notes, having your slides in the wrong order etc. So firstly, Practice makes perfect. I can’t stress enough. If you take one thing away from this session let it be Practice, Practice practice! What can you do to minimise problems? 

The answers to these and many other questions are explored on this course.
By the end of this workshop your delegates will be able to:

Structure a presentation.

Establish a relationship with an audience.

Keeping your audiences attention.

Use rhetorical questions.

Use body language.

Use voice and pronunciation.

Deal with difficult questions.
