An exercise in the use of passion to communicate Talking up and talking down Turning points. An exercise in using personal material to produce empathy and strong feeling in an audience Prepared Presentations Prepared presentations will be given by each in turn, assessed on the basis of the IMPACT model and worked with to begin developing the individual's best use of the presentation medium. Here we will cover: How audiences and presenters interact How to make use of that interaction The real reasons for presenting Ways of getting ideas across that are entertaining and stimulating The relationship between nervous energy and expressive capacity A reinforcement of the reasons for presenting This presentation, and all the rest of the individual work during the day will be videoed. However, there will be no other play-back (other than the first, one-minute presentation). The video is for the delegates to take away for themselves. Location Location Location! A brief discussion on the various arenas in which participants present. This is to get a picture of some of the challenges that arise in certain settings. Presentations in a meeting setting Here we look at the dynamics of 'working a table'. This will include the different types of questions you can ask, how to work the 'geography' of a table, how to open things up or close them down. Preparation Tools These are a number of different processes that emphasise the value of preparation and rehearsing different approaches to any presentation. Use of media and structure This exercise that looks at the various media available during a presentation. A look at the uses of modular vs linear structure Presenting to Different Levels of Understanding Here we look at how to assess the levels of understanding within the audience, and deliver information with varied emphasis, without appearing to patronise. 30 Second Presentation Each delegate will work with a model that allows people to put across a powerful presentation in 30 seconds. This is a terrific tool for strongly influencing people when under pressure. Creativity and 'Out of the box' thinking How to put ideas across in ways that creates maximum impact. Here we look at the use of analogy and memorable images to enhance factual information. Handling Difficult Questions Techniques for: Staying 'On the front foot' Remaining confident and professional when you don't know the answer Practising saying you don't know Referring people to others Being able to say what you do know Treating each question as an opportunity, rather than a missile Deliberate Misunderstanding To demonstrate how effective analogies can be, we have a light-hearted exercise where people have to deal with being wrong-footed by the rest of the delegates who deliberately misinterpret what they are trying to present. Summing up and Personal Take Out We will spend a short time reviewing the work of the day. Each person to identify and to make a brief presentation about: What they know they will take from the Advanced Presentation Skills Course that they know they will use What support or development they need over the coming months What they need to do to ensure they practise We would highly recommend that people do some kind of 'advanced presentation' as soon as possible to reinforce the work of the programme.
