Make Presentation Skills and
Public Speaking Fun

   
 
 

This fun, interactive session stimulates participants to become more effective in their business skills by learning presentation skills. Practical, effective tools to improve success in all areas of public speaking will be learned. Video taping of short individual audience presentations with immediate review and analysis is included. Robin's unique approach is to build skills and confidence. As with all of her programs, you will be "Having fun while getting it done."

Presentations are not difficult but the fear of public speaking must be overcome. Building the speaker's confidence has proven to increase speaking skills dramatically. The use of audience involvement activities and games for presentation skills demonstrate the significant points necessary for effective presentations. Using improvisational acting techniques where people learn to be more spontaneous and creative make Robin's programs really work.

The improvisational acting techniques are used to strengthen the ability to communicate creatively. The Wall Street Journal recently reported that classes in improvisation are becoming very popular with business professionals to teach them “how to loosen up, lighten up and keep ahead of the game.” It teaches people to learn to improvise when plans, tools and resources fail.

All of the important skill elements to write an outline for a presentation will be taught. For example, the presentation can be organized by any of the following four methods:

time sequence, eg. steps in securing a small business line of credit;

function, eg. describing what a financial product can do;

structure, eg. how services operate/interrelate;

deduction from principles, eg. compounding of interest over time.

To build credibility for significant points the presenter can use definitions, descriptions, explanations, facts and authoritative opinions. Do’s, don’ts and dealing with dissenting opinions are also be covered.

The audience involvement activities help participants to understand their own behavioral style and how it affects their ability to communicate their message. The activities are fun-with-a-purpose.
