Methods
This training uses easy and effective techniques which are tailor-made for your business situations. Through physical and vocal exercises, role plays and presentations in front of the whole group you will develop self-confidence for presenting in English. The training is especially impactful if you are expecting (or expected) to make work-related presentations in the future. You will have the opportunity to make 3 short presentations videotaped using your handphone: the first is a simple baseline introduction, the second a first run of a work-related presentation, and the last a revised run. Much can be learned from viewing yourself on video and it increases your ability to improve. You can prepare notes and even some slides in advance if you wish, but it is not necessary, as there will be preparation time built into the structure of the workshop. This training builds on your strengths, encourages positive thinking and supports an effective learning process. Trainer and participant feedback follow all presentations. Please note that this is not an English language course.
Recommended for
Specialists, office worker and managers as well as project managers who need to present in English. All those who need to work in the English language in everyday business and have to make presentations within and outside of their organisation. Language competence should be intermediate or good.
