Year 3
Speak to persuade: when being informative is not enough
Truly effective leaders are the ones who not only get people to listen when they
speak but also get them to take action. Learning how to do that takes practice.
Once you've heard what it takes to be a persuasive presenter, you'll get the opportunity
to practice and apply the various strategies and skills while getting on-the-spot
coaching and feedback. Through the use of individual and small-group exercises,
you will learn how to:
- Project an image of confidence and competence while building trust
- Be concise yet convincing when responding to questions
- Respond effectively and maintain your composure when asked tough questions
- Never be caught off guard for an extemporaneous speaking situation
- Develop and deliver a presentation specifically designed to persuade and get buy-in
How do you become a truly persuasive and credible communicator? The same way you
get to Carnegie Hall ... practice, practice, practice. This session will give you
the opportunity to do just that in a supportive, high-energy setting.
