Pitch Perfect
This
afternoon masterclass will show you how to present with optimum impact. Can you
remember when someone gave a dreadful presentation? They waffled on, forgot key points and didn’t
use technology properly. What was wrong? Lack of sleep, weather, mystery virus?
The problem was they practiced a bit, winged it and hoped for the best. The hard fact is that all of us only get so
far on natural ability. To deliver effective presentations is a process that we
can learn, practice and apply.
This
course will look at: -
- How to open and close
- Use of humour and technology
- Body language
- Writing scripts
- Memory techniques
- Overcoming nerves
- Using props and notes
- How to bring alive dry material
You will
go away with a tool kit that will enable you to develop and grow your ability
when presenting.
Cost: £50 CIMA members/students: £60
