Presenting with Impact

Remember your last presentation? Many people would prefer to forget the experience. It doesn’t have to be that way. Presenting with Impact equips presenters with the skills to deliver engaging presentations that generate results.

Course Outline: Module 1: Presenting for Results

As a professional, you need to be able to present effectively. Presenting and communicating information are key skills that can increase your effectiveness, contribute to your success, and generate results for you and your organization. During this module, we provide the skills and tools you need to be an effective presenter.

Module 2: Assessing Your Audience

Many presenters believe the audience assessment phase is the most critical step toward ensuring a successful presentation. During this module we explore ways to adequately assess your audience so you can ensure a “connection” right from the start of your presentation.

Module 3: Preparing Your Presentation

Preparation is probably the most important aspect of being an accomplished presenter. Though it takes time, it is worth the investment to have a presentation that is well structured and follows the proper sequence. During this module, we outline a sequence of steps for preparing a strong presentation, as well as a sequence for delivering your presentation.

Module 4: Using Visual Aids and Managing Logistics

With careful choice, visual aids reinforce your message and engage your audience. During this module, we review the variety of visual aids available and discuss how to select the ones that best suit your presentation.

Module 5: Delivering Your Presentation

You have identified your objective, assessed your audience, developed your presentation, and enhanced it with visual aids. The next step is delivery.
