Public
Speaking: Speaking Under Pressure
This two-day workshop has been
designed for those who are in positions where they must speak in
front of audiences that are hostile or demanding. This material
is also suitable for those who are relatively new speakers who
want some encouragement to speak up in meetings or who want some
training before they begin making presentations on behalf of the
organization. This course is
aimed at improving your skills and learning some new techniques
which will give you the persuasive edge when you are making a
presentation, fielding difficult questions, or presenting
complex information. The course includes several exercises where
the participant will have to prepare and present speeches of
varying length and with varying notice.
What
participants will learn:
-
What you can do to prepare
for questions before you know what those questions will be
-
Acquire strategies for taking
control in a variety of pressured speaking situations
-
How you can overcome the
nerves that you may have when speaking in front of a group,
particularly if the group is not sympathetic to what you
have to say
-
Presentation techniques that
establish your credibility and get people on your side
Workshop
Outline:
As facilitator,
you have the option of using a variety of training methods
for each workshop. This includes large group discussions,
individual work and reflection, small group discussions &
exercises, case studies and simulations for role play.
Customization will be based on your own needs or information
provided by your human resource department or the individual
department prior to the workshop. Materials are designed as
interactive workshops with a 40/60 split between
concept/theory and practical application of skills
discussed. Class size should be kept under 20, whenever
possible, so each participant will have the opportunity to
gain techniques for the types of situations they deal with
or expect to deal with.
