Presenting to Senior Leaders
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
Your audience, particularly a Senior Leadership audience, needs high-quality information on which to base business and project decisions. Or, your colleagues need to solve problems and chart new directions. To support these stakeholders you need the ability to influence, motivate or persuade which depends just as much on how you structure your message and show up as the content itself.
The ability to prepare, design and deliver highly engaging presentations is a core competency for most business professionals in today’s business world. This workshop therefore will focus on the tools, skills and a process that you can use to support your internal and external partners.
While we review best practices around creating the right presence using voice, body language, energy levels etc., we recommend our Presenting With Ease workshop for those looking to build confidence through more practice presenting followed by feedback opportunities.
