Persuasive presentations

Course description

Communication skills are vital in any business environment. To be able to stand up, speak up and persuade is crucial to getting yourself heard and your message understood. We are all ‘salespeople’ when we present to our clients and staff, we need to sell our company our services and most importantly – ourselves.

Everyone is capable of giving a persuasive presentation. All you need are three things:

  1. Stories/Facts
  2. Skills
  3. Confidence

If you work on the first two, the third will magically appear!

This workshop will provide participants with the skills and practical experience to deliver engaging, informative and persuasive presentations.
