Presenting Data with Confidence

From our experience, planning for the actual presentation of our data stories is often seen as a luxury, and the first time we tend to talk through our slides is directly in front of our intended audience. .. which can’t be right!

This course is designed to challenge that and to share ideas on how you can put more meaningful time into preparing and rehearsing for your presentation, and then what you can do to manage nerves on the day to present with confidence and authority.

The course is based on a combination of years of experience in business presentations, together with the theory and best practice of theatre performance and what actors focus on to become more confident in their own delivery.

If you’re often left frustrated with an audience that failed to connect with your presentation, or if you feel that nerves and a lack of confidence is holding you back, then this course is for you.

The course contains models, examples and best practice to help you become a better presenter and have more influence within your organisation.

The training is designed to be interactive and full of discussions and exercises, with best practice from the world of acting to help build your confidence and elevate your delivery.

Participants of the training will end up with a portfolio of techniques and ideas to help build your confidence and self-belief when it comes to your next key presentation.
