Presentation Advantage

Presented by BIOCOM and 2Connect

The Presentation AdvantEdge workshop is filled with practice and feedback to help experienced presenters hone their skills and better connect with audiences. Our approach is unique. Instead of using a canned curriculum, we customize each workshop by having every participant deliver a baseline presentation within the first two hours of training. We can then focus on those specific areas requiring the most improvement.

Presenters don't improve presentation skills by sitting around a conference table and talking about presentation strategies. They do it through practice, observation, and feedback. To facilitate this, each participant will:

• Deliver three business presentations that are videotaped
• Receive feedback from the instructors and other participants
• Observe other participants and provide feedback
• Observe the instructors modeling various presentation strategies
• Review their videotaped presentations and receive one-on-one coaching
  
  
  

As a result of this training, participants will be able to:

• Present with confidence
• Turn data into compelling information
• Master 2-3 new skill sets
• Connect with their audience
• Deliver clear and concise presentations that get results
• Topics Covered
  
  
  

Based on the baseline presentations, 2Connect facilitators cover what is most relevant for the group. Topics may include:

• Connect with confidence
• Know your audience
  
• Have a clear purpose
• Organize it!
• Why less is more
• PowerPoint® tips
• Maximize your best visual aid-you!
• Incorporate your hands and feet
• Master the Q and A
• Get 'em involved
