This intensive two-day session will really put you through your presentation paces.

DAY ONE

In the morning, we review the kinds of presentations everybody gives and share experiences of presenting, good and bad. We look at some of the familiar ways in which presentations fail and ways to counter them. One of the key elements here is Storytelling. Human beings naturally tell each other stories all the time, but in a presentation situation we start reading off bullet points instead. This session will give us stronger, more powerful tools to use instead.

After lunch, each person presents for the rest of the group, and we analyse the choices that have been made in terms of structure, emphasis, tone, and so on. We look at which slides are adding to the audience's experience and which are redundant or distracting. Each person has their presentation reshaped according to the morning's principles of storytelling, and the process becomes clearer and clearer.

DAY TWO

Over night, each participant makes whatever changes to their presentation they deem necessary and now we look at what great presenters are doing to "sell" their content. How do they stand? How do they move? How do they convince us that they are full of confidence, believe every word they are saying, and are relishing the process of sharing it with us? Again, once the basic principles are understood, each person gets individual coaching and feedback to enable them to make the best, most appropriate use of these techniques.

OUTCOMES

Participants leave the workshop with a far stronger idea of what giving a presentation is all about and what's necessary to give a great, inspiring and memorable one. They have had a complete presentation reworked by an expert and have seen the process on others so they can apply the principles themselves.

Price includes: two days' expert coaching as part of a small group (no more than six people), lunch and refreshments on both days, and 28 days FREE telephone or email support following the workshop.

"The training yesterday was great - I both enjoyed it and learned loads. I'm putting it into practice now as I'm rewriting my presentation for next week! By far the best training I've been on." - recent attendee
