Day One: Designing Persuasive Presentations™

PREPARE EXCEPTIONAL MATERIAL

Insufficient preparation of your material causes you to fall at the first hurdle. Making a repeated hash of your presentations leads you to step down from leadership. Nicholas Hill’s presentation skills training course for senior managers helps you to develop and prepare your material, to sustain an upbeat momentum throughout all of your talks and speeches.

INFLUENCE POSITIVE ACTION

If your audience takes no affirmative action in response to your message, then your words are as good as silent. If your audience responds with adverse behaviour, then your presentations ruin your career or organisation. Nicholas Hill’s presentation skills training course for senior managers demonstrates how to use inspiring calls to action with your audience, which yields a high return on investment.

HANDLE CHALLENGING QUESTIONS

Your audience will perceive your talk or speech as overly scripted if you fail to interact with them and answer their provocative questions. Everyone has a counter argument to your message, so ignore objections at your peril. Nicholas Hill’s presentation skills training course for senior managers equips you with critical tools for the tough question and answer sessions that earn your respect as a leader.

HANDLE PROPS SEAMLESSLY

‘Death by PowerPoint’ has become a pandemic over the last two decades. Relying on visual aids is a crutch used by inexperienced and inept speakers. Your audience wants you to speak to them, instead of reading from slides or notes. Nicholas Hill’s presentation skills training course for senior managers shows you how to use exhibits, props, and multimedia to your advantage.

MANAGE DIFFICULT AUDIENCES

There is often at least one person in your audience, whose aim is to knock you off your perch. Their purpose could simply be to test your conviction of testimony, strength of character, or even leadership skills. Nicholas Hill’s presentation skills training course for senior managers gives you powerful rapport-building tools, to win favour with demanding audiences.

HOLD THE FLOOR

Unless you change your vocal inflexions, by varying your volume, pitch, tempo, and tonality during a long speech, your audience finds you monotonous, dreary, or wearisome. Nicholas Hill’s presentation skills training course for senior managers helps to project your speech and find your charisma, by utilising better voice modulation and control.

DELIVER WITH AUTHORITY

If your speeches are timid, hesitant, or sloppy, then your audience looks for a quick exit. When you are on stage, you are the centre of attention. To keep your audience engaged, you need to be the star of the show. Nicholas Hill’s presentation skills training course for senior managers builds your self-confidence so that you can deliver your material with credibility, conviction, and authority.

COMMAND ATTENTION

Your stage is a projection screen. If you fail to use it to your advantage, your presentation appears as a Hollywood box office flop, which leaves your audience dissatisfied. Nicholas Hill’s presentation skills training course for senior managers trains you to use your floor space and acknowledge audience perception of time and space, to command the undivided attention of your audience.
