Intermediate Presentation Skills on Monday 11 and Tuesday 12 May (a host venue is sought) is a workshop designed for individuals who want to master and/or brush up on the essentials of presenting. The workshop gives a blend of scientific theory and practical exercises to build skills and confidence within a supportive environment.
This training takes full account of where you are in terms of presentation experience and current commitments, and focuses on the requirements of each new group. This person-centred method of working gives everyone the opportunity to address their own needs. You will be helped to incorporate real-world proven and researched methods into your own style to develop effective presentations.
Delegates usually spend Day 1 on issues connected with the person, such as confidence building and non-verbal communication to help convey authority. Day 2 concentrates on criteria for capturing attention through verbal communication and content, structuring a talk for maximum impact and retention, and techniques for engagement and memorability
Everyone will have the opportunity to be filmed, and to see and hear themselves present, which is a great tool for self-awareness and development: learning about your own style, what works well and what you need to improve.
