Course description
Persuasive Presentations
Selling a big idea, gaining people's buy-in, or getting others to take your desired course of action is one of the most challenging endeavors you will undertake in business. It is also one of the most pivotal skills to have in business. Everyone, regardless of their place or position within an organization, will find themselves having to influence colleagues, motivate a team, persuade a superior, or sell a client. The persuasive power of your presentation skills makes the difference between getting ahead or falling behind.
This workshop on Persuasive Presentations provides participants with a presentation framework as well as persuasion strategies and tactics to ensure that their ideas are adopted, projects and change initiatives gain acceptance, or simply achieve more of a "Yes" and more effectively move others to action, enhancing their presentation skills for greater impact.
