Topic:
Developing Powerful Presentations
Description and Speaker:

When asked to develop a presentation do you freeze? Have you ever stared at a blank PowerPoint screen and wondered where to start? Join us for "Developing Powerful Presentations"; a workshop on how to quickly conceptualize and design presentations. Points we'll cover include:

  • Clarifying and refining your presentation objectives
  • Analyzing your audience
  • Quickly creating a logical narrative outline
  • Powerful opening and closing statements
  • Tools for supporting your presentation – when they work and when they don't

Our goal is to provide you with some simple and useful techniques for developing presentations that will engage and make you a stronger presenter.
