Presentation Skills Course: Plan and Deliver Memorable Presentations
Business Communication. Sharpen your communication skills.
Every time you present to someone it forms an impression, giving you the potential for gain or loss. Over time, if you maximise the number of positive impressions you leave when you present, it will give you an edge in getting others to act, and in producing the outcomes you want.
This presentation skills training course will enable you to be perceived as articulate and competent – through how you plan and deliver presentations. You’ll learn how to handle presentation fears and nerves and how to understand your audience. You’ll learn how to open and ‘hook’ an audience to listen, and how to choose, plan and structure your content. You’ll learn how to handle Q&A and how to make a memorable impression, and when and how to use (and not use) PowerPoint.
