OFFICE POETRY

Details

An interactive course providing valuable techniques, motivation and practice to improve impactful communication and presentation. OVERVIEW Business lingo tends to make everything boring and predictable. Storytellers stand out and get noticed in meetings. They are also able to motivate teams, convince internal stakeholders, and score the best projects. Telling compelling stories, creating impactful presentations and delivering positive messages are skills that can be learned with some solid techniques and a bit of practice. This workshop examines formats for delivering important messages, such as results, updates, bad news and successes. We dispel the negative myths about gossip and office politics and teach participants how to weave stories into their reporting. Presentation techniques and stakeholder management are practiced at length. Constructive feedback sessions allow participants to track their progress.
