Context

Presentations are a ubiquitous feature of organisational life and a vital means by which information is communicated. Yet ‘Death by PowerPoint’ is a common affliction in many organisation, and a google search for ‘Powerpoint Sucks’ yields 1.7 million responses. There is another way.


Content

We’ll focus on the two key areas of structuring and delivering effective and engaging presentations without slides. We’ll share tools to enable you to improve how you structure your presentations to:

  • Create shorter, more focused presentations.

  • How to pitch ideas to senior people who are time-poor – being succinct and creating ‘sticky’ messages.
  • Decrease that time spent preparing for presentations.

Then we’ll share presentation delivery techniques to help you:

  • Be more engaging than any two-dimensional slide show could ever be.
  • Use stories, metaphors, images, props and memorable language to engage audiences.
  • Create congruence between voice, body, personality and content.
  • Respond with conviction and and confidence to challenges and difficult questions.
  • Enjoy giving engaging presentations.
  • Plenty of live learning for practice.
