Are Your Presentations Killing Your Influence and Hurting Your Reputation?

Your stakeholders look to you to ensure their success. Do you convey the confidence they need to move forward with the ideas you propose? Do you structure your presentations to make it easy for them to say yes? Do you feel good about yourself and get the kudos you deserve? This interactive session will help you market your ideas and boost your ability to influence and persuade others. From understanding how to engage your stakeholders (or staff) from the starting line, to feeling confident about how and when to handle Q & A, you'll leave this session with fresh ideas to help others feel safe and smart agreeing to your recommendations. Be prepared to hear and see the truth and to discuss better options for a more exciting delivery, a more relevant conversation and a more authentic presentation.

At the end of this session, attendees will:

• Create a presentation opening that engages listeners and sets the tone for a productive meeting
• Formulate slides that are compelling, professional and memorable
• Structure a high-level presentation for acceptance and action

High Impact Presentation Skills

Banish boring presentations forever! Say it to engage it! Present your message so they'll say, "Yes, I want that!" Whether you present over lunch, on the phone, formally or internally to your executive team, learn how you can tell your story to win!

Be a Storyteller: Communicate Your Message with Impact and Influence

How do you persuade skeptical people to make the leap from disbelief to engagement? How do you get people involved and excited about your product, your idea, your brand? How do you influence others? It's about connecting with listeners on an emotional level in a transparent and authentic manner. Attendees discover how they can tell stories from their everyday life to more easily motivate and influence others. You leave with new ideas to compel listeners, extend brand image and build commitment. Makes a perfect keynote or an engaging, intensive working session.

High Impact Story Telling for High Impact Presentations

Face time with customers is being squeezed down to nothing. So when you're given the chance to meet F2F, what do you say to engage them? This workshop covers the strategies you need to know to connect authentically, memorably and profitably. If you waste their time, you've wasted your opportunity. From what to say that will cause them to pay attention to you (in a good way!) at networking events, to presenting your ideas over lunch, in their office, at a meeting, or from a stage, you'll leave this session thinking differently and acting (way) differently. Count on delivering your message in a customer-centric, conversation, crisp and confident manner.

Powerful Presentation Strategies for Leaders

Are your presentations as good as they should be? Boost your ability to clearly and memorably convey your message so that your audience not only enjoys your delivery, but acts on your words. Overcome anxiety, create attention getting openings, and present persuasive messages. Be so interesting that they'll want to use their PDAs to take notes instead of text friends.
