How to Present Ideas & Give Executive Briefings
with Clarity, Persuasion, and Purpose—
and Stand Out and Above Your Competition
“Ideas…are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed
the world is ruled by little else.” John Maynard Keynes, the
most influential economist of the 20th Century
The main goal of this course is to enable sales and
marketing professionals to win clients by standing out from their
competition through the power of clear, motivating ideas,
powerfully presented. This course is built on the conviction, that
too many sales reps do a “dog and pony” show, failing to connect
with their audiences and forgetting to use proven principles of
persuasion that gain audience agreement. Most sales
presentations lack the content, conviction, and delivery to make
winning ideas clear and memorable. This course will show you how to
stand out when you present.
The skills taught in this class are useful when presenting to
large groups, smaller groups informally across a conference
table, or to one-on-one meetings with key decision makers.
Learning Objectives and Skill
Development
Course Length: ½ day; preclass PREP WORK OPTIONAL
(if you come prepared with a presentation, you will get an
opportunity to have your work coached for improvement ideas).
This training session develops several key skills
and provides effective methods for further improvement of those
skills after the class. This course will:
-
Provide a methodology for planning, preparing
and delivering powerful presentations.
-
Provide skills to give effective executive
briefings that gain commitment.
-
Teach you how to be persuasive, gaining
credibility for yourself, your company, and your ideas.
-
Assess individual strengths and areas for
improvement through feedback.
-
Integrate these skills by using Microsoft ®
PowerPoint®
and other electronic technology.
You will gain immediate benefit from the class by working on a key
work-related presentation. After the class, you will leave with an
improved presentation and improved skills for delivering
presentations.
Course Model
This course will challenge participants to work hard
and apply the principles during and after the class by:
-

delivering presentations.
-
Provide a workshop environment for participants
to apply what they learn.

Use your business presentations as a working
model so you leave with an improved tool.
