Presentation Skills
Today, being a dynamic presenter strengthens your effectiveness in meetings, on phone calls and teleconferences, and in stand-up presentations. Mastering the elements below can turn paralysis into action, nervousness into willingness, and good into great.
- Understanding the 3 V’s of communication (visual, verbal, vocal)
- Strengthening your physical skills: posture, gestures, voice, eye contact, movement and mannerisms
- Connecting to the courageous presenter within you
- Redirecting nervousness and doubt into useful, directed energy
- Developing a "hot start" for all presentations
- Developing clear content: how much is enough?
- Learning the home bases for power point, props, A/V
- Designing power point slides that engage and clarify
- Learning the art of story telling to emphasize key points
- Thinking on your feet: buying yourself think time
- Rehearsing; what and how to rehearse your way
- Ending with command
- Seeing yourself as others see you
- Reading your audience; how to adapt to their needs
- Handling interruptions from senior managers

We offer video-taping of each individual so that they can actually see their strengths and development areas. As a result, audience size is limited or two facilitators are necessary in order to accomodate the personalized instruction.
