This bite-size training session on persuasive presentations aims to help delegates to create and deliver a presentation that results in action. Increasingly in organisations, we need to persuade groups of people to do things via a presentation in a meeting. Whether it’s making a sale, negotiating for resources, getting plans approved, asking for a decision or a change of approach – persuasive presentations have a role to play.
In these cases, presenting facts and figures isn’t always enough, but at the same time, spinning an exciting story with nothing to back it up won’t work either. You have to be able to take people on a journey that balances exciting opportunities with solid evidence which will make it easy for them to agree to the recommendations made.
In particular, by the end of the Power Hour delegates will be able to:
- Generate interest and curiosity from the start
- Apply Cialdini’s six principles and persuasive language to influence their audience
- End your presentations in a way that will gain agreement to action
