Presentations Training for Licensee & Train the Trainer Seminars

Course Outline:
This course proves once again that Baker Communications has been leading the way in corporate training for more than a generation. Our Exceptional Presentations course is still unsurpassed in offering tremendous value to students, no matter what their previous skill level may be.

In spite of all of the emphasis today on doing business at a distance via phone, cell phone, email, Internet, and fax, some things just work better face to face. This includes presentations of all types. Staff meetings, board meetings, sales meetings, PTA meetings, etc. – when you must inform key decision makers efficiently and effectively, there is no substitute for a compelling presentation.

However, many of your staff members are probably intimidated at the idea of getting up in front of a group, especially with important decisions on the line. It doesn’t have to be this way. Our Exceptional Presentations course provides all the tools you need to help you teach your staff to deliver highly effective presentations with confidence and style. Of course, we cover all the basics – projection, enunciation, posture, etc. But we also help you to develop the 1-2-3 punch of content, tone of voice and body language that is the secret of professional speakers and media journalists. We even help you understand different personality types and what each type is unconsciously listening for, so your people can craft their presentations to appeal effectively to the audience members you most want to influence. During the class, students will practice new skills during a series of 10 video taped mini-presentations. As students review each session with the help of a personal coach, they will be able to refine their skills as they learn them.
