EXEQSERVE HR SOLUTIONS

They say..

Conducting a presentation or speaking before an audience is feared more than heights, flying or as mentioned in one survey even dying! It’s crazy but if this is true most people would prefer to be lying in the casket than to give a eulogy. In the business world, however, there is no avoiding having to present a product, a report, or an idea. It is necessary, therefore, to have the confidence to be able to present effectively. Develop this confidence by developing your employees’ skills. Develop their skills by knowing what skills they already have. This workshop allows the participants the chance to assess and develop the presenter in them and put together an action plan to use techniques for getting their message across, keeping their audience interested and eliciting the desired reaction.

The Workshop would be a two-day , a week apart skills development training. It starts with a gap analysis of each learner’s presentation skills vis-à-vis the ideal. This analysis would enable the learner to develop a Skills Inventory, which may be used to identify areas for improvement. Effective presentation techniques and guidelines will be taught and demonstrated through a series of lectures and experiential activities. By the end of the workshop, each learner will demonstrate learning by simulating a work-related presentation. The presentations will be videotaped and will be critiqued by the learner, the class, and the trainer. Feedback and the learner’s progress will be recorded in the Skills Inventory which will be used by the learner to identify further development needs, and track progress.
