Presenting with Confidence Training Course

Presentation Skills

• Delivery of a pre-prepared presentation on the delegate’s chosen subject but related to their work.

• Full one-to-one and group feedback

• Questions tor the presenter to ask in advance

  • Understanding how the answers to these questions affect the structure of the presentation
• Structuring the content:
  • Research – know the subject
  • Putting the content in order
  • Creation and use of complimentary visual aids

• A presenter’s three fundamental communications tools:
  • Verbal – the words being used and avoiding slang and jargon
  • Vocal – the sound of the words avoiding any distracting verbal tics and punctuations
  • Visual – the look of the presenter: dress; mannerisms; presence
• Rehearsing the presentation – and getting honest feedback from a trustworthy source
• Coping with nerves

• Room layouts – and how they communicate underlying messages to those attending the presentation
• Using the room to enhance the presentation experience

• Delivery of another presentation (after suitable preparation time).

N.B. This could be the same presentation as in Module 1 but revised following the detailed feedback

• Full one-to-one and group feedback
