_Of course you have good ideas. But it takes more than a good idea to
command attention. You need to package your message and project
confidence. Mike Monteiro will show you how. _The ability to turn a
list of recommendations into a compelling story is the most critical
skill that rarely gets taught—and never across disciplines.
Designers learn to speak to designers, engineers to engineers,
business leaders to each other, etc.
During this workshop, we’ll cover effective presentation techniques
including:
* Confronting the terror of standing up in front of people
* Taking charge of any room
* Turning information and recommendations of any type into a good
story for any audience
* Mapping your work to shared goals and objectives
* Asking for the right kind of feedback, and avoiding opening
yourself up to stuff you don't need
In a single day, Mike Monteiro will turn you into the most confident
and prepared version of yourself you can imagine.
EVERYONE LOVES THIS WORKSHOP!
_"The content was incredibly useful. I've mostly worked as a lone wolf
in a sea of engineers and have been making it up as I go. Having some
solid, easy to remember, principles for not messing up have already
carried me through the last week of a pretty challenging project."_
_"It was a revelation!"_
_"I don't know how to choose just one favorite part."_
HOW YOUR DAY WILL GO
In the morning, Mike will explain the core principles of powerful
presentations and share the mistakes most people make. Then,
participants will have the opportunity to each give their own
presentation and learn how to offer constructive critique.
The afternoon is for do-overs! Following the presentations and
critique, each participant will be guided through refinement and given
the opportunity to put the new techniques into practice. Everyone
walks away a champion.
Because of the intensive, collaborative nature of the workshop, we
keep each class size small.
THIS WORKSHOP IS FOR YOU!
Whether you’re a designer, a developer, an engineer, a product
leader, or whatever funny name you’ve come up for yourself this
week, your job includes having to convince someone of something. Time
to do it better.
BRING THIS ONE SMALL THING.
Be ready to give a 5-minute presentation. We will provide additional
details to registered attendees in advance.
