INTRODUCTION:

Presentation is an important life skill that unfortunately is seldom emphasized during our early and learning years. In fact, this trend continues even up to tertiary education and early working life for many people. It is usually assumed that once you have the necessary knowledge and skills, you should be able to present them effortlessly. Thus, the predominantly lopsided focus on knowledge acquisition and little or no attention paid to presenting what we know in an interesting, inspiring, integrative and interactive manner.

The ability to present in a clear, concise and convincing manner to a wide variety of audiences enhances our ultimate effectiveness in life and at work. So many excellent plans get passed over because of less than stellar presentations resulting in doubts and inadequate buy-ins. On the other hand, lesser projects sometimes get the nod because of the impressive presentations and other “softer” factors supporting them.

This program explores the intricacies of presentations and dissects the important components for easier learning and assimilation. We then provide a step-by-step approach to building presentation skills. It includes tips, guidance and a hands-on experience in developing and presenting an effective presentation.
