Course overview
Public speaking can be one of the most challenging and daunting prospects for business leaders and managers. The mere thought of presenting at client meetings, team briefings, project presentations, and external conferences can fill people with fear. Get it right and your audience are uplifted and motivated, with the key take-away messages clearly delivered. Get it wrong and they leave deflated and confused. So much pressure!
In this fun and interactive workshop, we will discuss some of the common challenges and fears, plus encourage delegates to share any specific areas they want to improve or learn how to manage.
We will also introduce and explore the three key components of a successful presentation which are Content, Delivery and Connection (with the audience).
This will include looking at strategies and techniques that professional presenters, speakers, politicians & even comedians use to prepare and deliver speeches and presentations.
We will also show a wide range of video clips that demonstrate some of the key elements such as how your vocal changes, body movements, and facial expressions can help engage audiences and build momentum through the presentation.
