Course description
Presenting to Leadership & Other Decision Makers
Strategies for making a compelling case effectively & efficiently
Presenting to leaders and other decision makers can be a daunting task for those unaccustomed to speaking to audiences at this level. Often, people get nervous, lose focus, and talk in circles. As if that’s not bad enough, they are reluctant to offer an opinion or recommendation at the end – leaving executives to figure it out on their own.
Executives want the bottom line. They want a strong recommendation and the rationale behind it based on their needs and objectives.
Our Presenting to Leadership & Other Decision Makers workshop helps participants understand their role as the “expert” and the dynamics of working with senior executives. We provide the skills to build more confident, professional presenters that leaders will respect – leading to more productive meetings and easier decisions.
Throughout the class, participants apply the principles of The Orderly Conversation® to their own real-life content using an executive summary template. Participants are video recorded as they practice their presentations, and each recorded exercise is followed by private, instructor-led video review. This process helps attendees identify and develop the skills they need to succeed. This class does not include slide design or delivery.
Presenting to Leadership & Other Decision Makers includes access to eCoach – our program for pre-work and post-workshop performance support. Participants receive reusable job aids and reference materials to help them apply what they learn in class to the situations they face outside of it. Attendees also receive a copy of The Orderly Conversation: Business Presentations Redefined.
All Turpin Workshops are highly customized to your organization’s and employees’ specific goals and challenges and can be delivered on-site or virtually.
