Effectively Communicating in the Spotlight
The Challenge
Public speaking consistently tops the list as the number one fear in America. Even the most confident, knowledgeable executive can be frozen by fear when all eyes in the room are on him/her. They fear that they will:
- Say the wrong thing.
- Stumble on their words, say “um” or otherwise degrade the quality of the content with their delivery.
- Not appear as knowledgeable as they are.
- Be asked questions they don’t know the answer to.
- Receive negative feedback or signs of dissatisfaction from the audience.
The Curriculum
The T-Dev – Presentation Skills course offers executives effective strategies for over coming fears and naturally communicating with an audience. They’ll learn how to:
- Prepare and rehearse their presentations.
- Connect with audience and engage them throughout the presentation.
- Present in a variety of situations including sales proposals, executive meetings and as a manager in team meetings.
- Use visual aids to guide the presentation.
- Replace “um” and other go-to words and sounds with acceptable alternatives.
Training Options
The T Dev – Presentation Skills course can be delivered to your executive team as a Transformation Point program -or- we can customize the materials to incorporate them into your broader training and development programs.
