Communicating to a Group
An independent market research firm surveyed 200
vice presidents of 1,000 of the largest corporation in the country.
It's now official. Business presentations are boring! 40% of the
executives admitted they snoozed during some of the presentation,
43.5% found most business presentations boring and 1% went so far
as to call them unbearable. Go way beyond boring to engaging, informative,
entertaining and memorable.
You can choose from a one or two-day format. The two day workshop involves video recording of participants—and they receive a CD for their review. In all workshops, participants have a number of opportunities to speak before the group and receive feedback.
Powerful Presentation Skills
Each time you stand before a group, you have the opportunity to
promote your ideas, your company or your product. Don't blow it!
We'll focus on three key factors—planning, structuring and
delivering presentations that reach each specific audience. Building
on each individual's style, we'll explore how to:
Set objectives and structure an
easy-to-follow presentation
Polish your visual, vocal and verbal
delivery
Welcome questions and field them
skillfully
Handle difficult situations—and
people—with finesse
“Jan was my lifeline when I was preparing for an important speaking engagement. When I started preparing, I felt a lot of anxiety and concern about how it would go. After working with Jan, I was so prepared, I actually looked forward to the event. She helped me not only with my presentation style, but also with the content, the PowerPoint slides, my clothing choices, and so much more. I knew I was ready to go. I was relaxed and confident. I delivered a dynamite presentation and got great feedback!”
