Presenting a Paper

Dissemination of information is essential for good communication in all organisations. The presentation of papers can be the most efficient and effective, if done in a clear and interesting manner. This course looks at all aspects of the process, from writing the script and fit specifications, right through to hints and guidelines for the actual delivery. Participants will be asked to bring with them an outline for a paper, or the paper itself. Opportunities will be available to practise reading extracts from the paper and feedback will be given on aspects of delivery.

The one-day programme looks at all the ingredients of presenting effectively, including audience interaction, overcoming nerves, handling the Q & A session and influencing through improved verbal skills and congruent body language.

Presentations and Voice Training

Participants are encouraged to bring with them outline notes to rehearse their presentations and receive coached feedback.
