Ensuring others listen to every word you say
International Presentation Skills
It’s easy to recognise a great presenter, but do you know what it takes to become one? A motivating, inspiring and convincing presentation is the key to success in many international management situations. Having a clear presentation objective, guiding your audience through this objective and communicating eloquently using skills to influence and persuade are core elements of a successful presentation. Working in the English language and with a toolbox of culturally diverse material, participants in our International Presentation Skills (I) seminar will identify and master a personal set of rhetorical skills to achieve these goals. Find your voice in any international business setting.
Seminar content

In this seminar the focus is on you as a learner, rather than on lecture content. Every content section makes use of brainstorming, team-teaching, group and individual work, coaching, practical exercises and demonstration. The seminar is interactive; many sections of the International Presentation Skills Seminar incorporate video analysis of each participant’s mini-presentation. A detailed handbook serves as reference material for long-term results, even after the seminar has ended.
