The ability to speak in front of a roomful of strangers or your peers, and present ideas and information in an engaging and interesting way, is one of the most important business skills you can acquire. Yet many people avoid making presentations because they believe they cannot overcome their nervousness or fear. This two-part program provides practical techniques for giving more effective presentations. Topics include planning and organizing your presentation, effective delivery methods, visual aids, and overcoming nervousness. You will have the opportunity to practice these skills and receive supportive feedback in a non-threatening environment.
One registration will put you in both parts of this workshop; you must attend both parts to get certificate credit for the workshop.
