Presentation Skills
Presentation Skills
One of the most difficult tasks required
of a person is to make a presentation. Whether the presentation
is to one person or many, there is a significant amount of pressure
on the speaker to do well. The presenter is called on to develop
and communicate an organized message while simultaneously holding
the audience s attention. The coordination of these factors is a
delicate, and at times, difficult balance.

Presentation Skills
The program, PRESENTATION SKILLS, addresses
the pre-planning and organization of a presentation, as well as
the physical and psychological factors involved in the delivery
of a presentation. We discuss memory and retention, supporting information
(e.g. statistics, examples, expert opinion). If visual aids (charts,
slides, overheads, PowerPoint) are used by the participants we address
the creation and handling of the visual aid. We cover how to handle
questions, objections and interruptions calmly, intelligently and
confidently. The program includes all the information and training
in the Speaking & Thinking Under Pressure program. The ideal
length for a Presentation Skills class is generally a day and a
half. However, some applications may require more or less time.<br>
