Oral Presentation Skills
Seminar (Half-Day)
Nearly anyone who has attended an education session, conference,
sales presentation, company-wide meeting or other oral presentation
event can point to examples of exceptional presenters and equally
dreadful presenters. Some individuals have a natural talent for
presenting that charms audiences and enables them to deliver persuasive
oral presentations. Other individuals may be blessed with incredible
subject knowledge but lack the oral presentation skills to adequate
communicate with their audience members. Two presenters delivering the
same message with vastly different oral presentation skills can
ultimately have a completely opposite effect on those to whom they are
speaking. Understanding how to take steps to improve oral presentation
skills can enable a poor presenter to turn into a persuasive presenter.
Our half-day training session, Oral Presentation Skills Seminar, teaches
participants how to improve communication skills when providing a
presentation to business colleagues, clients, association members or
neighbors.
This valuable training program enables participants to focus on oral
presentation skills in a non-threatening and learner-centered
environment. All skills and methodologies taught are designed to improve
oral presentation skills while increasing personal communication
effectiveness. Training discussions focus on areas such as the ability
to determine and understand audience needs, enhance oral communication
skills, improve visual image and handle question and answer sessions.
Training skills can be used whether one has to present at a departmental
meeting or deliver an oral presentation at a trade association event.
Participants practice by utilizing content they would ideally present
within 90 days of the training class. A senior training instructor will
videotape participants three times and will provide coaching to ensure
individualized feedback during all group sessions. This personalized
approach allows participants to evaluate personal progress and improve
oral presentation skills. Other training activities such as exercises,
group discussions and question and answer sessions reinforce the
learning process.
Oral Presentation Skills Seminar (Half-Day) participants will learn
to:
- Deliver an oral
presentation in a clear, concise, and persuasive manner

personal voice projection, articulation, pacing, and fluency

personal body language, eye contact, and gesturing
