Mon, 19 Aug 2024 12:48:56 GMT

It’s not about you. It’s about your audience!

You will learn and practice the key elements of high-impact communication: structures that have a purpose, meaningful content, and delivery that compels listeners with an authentic appeal.

This course focuses on the audience – the listeners. If a presenter sincerely cares about conveying the most appropriate message, the focus can change from thinking about ourselves to a breakthrough in helping to overcome some of the natural nervousness or distracting habits that can inhibit success.

Objectives:

Plan and organize professional presentations that speak directly to your chosen audience.
Be your authentic self to create a positive impression and maintain it through your entire presentation.
Be more natural, relaxed and confident when making presentations.
Elevate your ideas with clarity and force to maximize retention.
Sell ideas, influence, and inspire others to action.

Managing Up (Live Online) - Dale Carnegie Courses 10/31/2024 11:00 AM - 10/31/2024 12:30 PM

Mon, 19 Aug 2024 14:32:20 GMT

This 3-hour course includes 90 minutes of live online instruction and 90 minutes of self-directed learning.

In this course, we examine the ways we can influence the efficiency and effectiveness of our organization and work team, even if we are not the ones giving all the orders. We also commit to being more flexible in responding to others. Finally, we explore ways of managing our priorities and expectations, while accomplishing our goals and the goals of our manager at the same time.

Managing Up is about how to sell an idea “up” the organization. You’ll learn the importance of planning how to communicate with managers and colleagues, and now to manage priorities and expectations. Equally important to how we communicate our ideas, we’ll learn how to effectively receive suggestions and feedback.
