Introduction:
Back in 1973 a survey suggested that 19% were frightened of dying. However, 41% were frightened of public speaking! And things haven't got any better since then. It seems that most people are really scared about getting up on their feet in front of others and speaking. If you add in the need to get a particular message across then things get even worse. Of course, for managers and others at work, giving presentations isn't optional. It's something that has to be done!
But in fact anyone can learn to develop an effective structure for their presentation. And there are simple skills that can help remove the unnecessary fear and allow a clear, compelling presentation.
Aims:
To remove some of the fear associated with speaking in public and help participants learn to make compelling presentations.
Participants:
Anyone who has a need to stand up and make presentations.
Objectives:
By the end of the course participants will be able to:
- Develop a well-structured presentation to achieve identified objectives;
- Present themselves in front of the audience with confidence;
- Make and use notes;
- Make effective use of visual aids to support their presentation;
- Manage questions from the audience to aid achievement of objectives.
Content:

Style:
There is a mix of input and discussion. Additionally everyone will give a short presentation to the group and receive individual feedback and coaching to help improve their performance.
Duration:
The course lasts for one day. A two day version is available at employers venue for when role play and video playback is required.
Note:
Numbers of participants will be strictly limited.
