Communication
We will look at the simple components of any conversation and then see how they apply to the presentation format. This is a foundational element of the course as a whole.

This section will look at key stressors that affect social engagements and how to manage our responses to them. We will use the BICEP model to understand our fears in a presentation.

Nervousness is a chief complaint for many presenters. We will look at how to use nerves to our advantage and overcome stage fright.

Our inner monologue is a powerful ally or a dangerous enemy. We will look at how we can keep our thoughts on our side, keep them useful and keep them positive.
Body Language
We will examine how to interpret and communicate body language by understanding the relationship between the emotional and the physical. We will also learn how to boost confidence through power poses.
Your Speaking Voice
The ability to project, enunciate and create pleasant vocals is a trainable skill. We will look at techniques to practice towards a professional standard.

Add Punch to Your Presentation
Effective slides are a key tool for any presenter. We will look at some key rules for making sure we avoid “death by powerpoint” and create exciting visuals.
