“How to create effective presentations?” will be the question you are asking yourself whether you are:

• pitching for funding of your business
• trying to convince a customer to buy or
• transforming an organization

We will jointly explore what makes presentations interesting, clear and impactful for your audience. After a quick recap of the basics followed by a few exercises we will turn to your individual challenges and create the outline of an effective presentation.

Please find a topic, could be your business project, next presentation for a CEMS course or your private venture/idea which you will develop further throughout the course.

At the end of this skill seminar you will be able to:

• Clearly describe what you want to talk about (S-C-Q)
• Storyline your presentation according to your audience and the question at hand
• Understand the foundations of creating easy to understand slides

Full attendance throughout the day is required

Class interaction, individual and group exercises

Participation, contributions during class, completion of in-class exercises

You don’t need your laptop for this course, please make sure to think about what you want to present ahead of time so you pick a meaningful topic for yourself.
