Lunch and Learn: Engaging Public Speaking Through Storytelling


A workshop brought to you by Rixt Kuiper, Executive Coach and Owner of Executive Style Ltd.

 

Would you like to give interesting presentations, connect with your audience and keep their attention? Telling a story or using metaphors is a great way to connect with your audience. Come lunch, and learn the ins and outs of storytelling and how to apply this technique in business presentations.

The 90-minute session includes:

* Preparing for a presentation and creating an effective structure for your pitch;
* The use and purpose of stories in business presentation;
* The importance of effective body-language in presentations;
* Improvisation exercise: participants will be asked to give a short presentation and use a story to keep the audience's attention. They will receive constructive feedback on their personal presentation style;
* Wrap-up and give-away: all participants leave this workshop with a personal tip to improve their presentation style.


Light lunch will be served
