Essential presentation skills

Delivering a presentation is one of the most feared tasks. Poor performances can lead to lost opportunities for your organisation and you. Fear and anxiety associated with this critical skill can be overcome, once the correct tools and techniques are understood and used. This includes structuring presentations, engaging the audience and understanding your body language.

During this lively and interactive course, learners develop their own presentations and apply their learning as they go.

Strengths and weaknesses are identified, new methods for giving better presentations will be highlighted and feedback from the group and the facilitator, supported by video observations, will be used to enhance the new techniques learned.

This course will benefit new presenters, or those who feel that they lack confidence and skills, who wish to improve their techniques.
