Introduction to Presenting

Whatever type of audience you are facing, this presentation training course will help you to understand what makes a great presentation and give you the opportunity to refine and practice your own style.

Course Content:
Our presentation skills training courses are all specifically tailored, however as a guide, here's what we would advise covering in an introductory session:

The Theory:

• Your Content: Research and Audience / Your messages / The structure / Making an impact
• Your Soft Skills: Body language / Voice / Eye contact
• Q&As, Visual Aids and Problems: Where, when and how to deal with questions / PowerPoint / Props / Handouts / Handling nerves

The Practice Scenarios:
These trials will take place throughout the training so that you can develop and grow your approach as you progress. We advise as much practice as possible of the presentation but can also devise suitable questions, which will test your ability to deal with difficult audience members or Q&As. These bespoke scenarios are normally recorded by cameraman to provide a playback facility.

The Trainers:

However, as an example, our team includes a former fund manager and actor, a presenter and anchor for Sky News, a specialist soft skills coach, a former investment banker and IPO coach, others have backgrounds in charities, government, sales and marketing.
