Effective presentation

Date: September 22 and 28 | Time: 09:00-17:30 | Place: Riga | Membership fees: 450 EUR + VAT

Intended for:


For professionals of various industries who regularly make presentations and perform in front of work colleagues, clients, as well as larger audiences, for the improvement of presentation skills.

Challenge:

 

A great presentation explains, motivates and unites, sells, promotes careers, helps achieve personal and group goals. Failed presentation? It achieves all the same. Only with a negative sign.

Each of us quite naturally "knows" what a good presentation should be. After listening to a speech, message or presentation of an idea, we can explain with arguments: have we understood the presenter's idea, has he convinced us, has the presentation aroused sympathy and a desire to cooperate.

However, when it comes to self-presentation, most people get nervous, shy, and stutter. Wanting to say everything at once, speaks a lot of words, but does not convey the idea. Trying to include every possible detail in your slides misses the point. Trying to achieve long-term goals in one presentation creates more problems than before.

 

How to avoid these popular mistakes? How to create your “perfect presentation”?

The answer can be found through more focused questions. How to create a presentation message? How to make a presentation? How to present dry and technical information in an exciting way? How to make a convincing impression in front of the audience? How to engage the audience? When and how to use handouts? How to use other technical aids?

Answers to these and other questions - in the seminar "Effective Presentation" by Kārlis Apkalns.
