(One Hour Workshop)
One of the greatest fears most people have is that of speaking in public. Many of us, even those with years of experience, struggle with the anxiety caused when one is called upon to make a presentation. The fear surrounding a presentation is understandable - many of us are afraid of appearing foolish or embarrassing ourselves. When one makes a presentation, that person generally has the undivided attention of an audience. Every mannerism and mistake "appears" to be amplified a thousand times. That means that most people try to function by following the credo "fake it til you make it." Yet, having to make a presentation doesnt have to be difficult. In fact, one can learn how to quickly build and make a presentation in less than five minutes. It can be done.
In our one-hour How to Build and Make a Presentation in Five Minutes training seminar, participants will learn how to put together a clear, understandable and persuasive presentation that they can make with little to no preparation.
This "quick and dirty" training workshop is designed to empower managers, sales executives, financial advisors, civic association officers, non-profit executive directors and others with the ability to quickly structure and make a presentation. Our class teaches a time-tested training methodology that enables just about anyone to quickly make a presentation when called upon to unexpectedly to speak to an audience.
This training program works because we do more than teach you how to make a presentation. You will practice by actually making one by the end of the one-hour session. The system is so simple that it can be implemented within minutes. Each individual presentation is followed by instructor coaching and group feedback - a personalized training approach that promotes individual progress and allows participants to strengthen personal presentation skills. This training class utilizes activities such as exercises, discussions and question and answer sessions help reinforce the training concepts we teach.
