[Talk] Attitude, Connection and Voice: Three Success Factors for Presentations
Time:2015/05/07 (Thursday) 17:30-19:00 Speaker:Marc Anthony (AWEC Instructor) Location:Liberal Education Classroom Bldg. Rm301
“The ability to speak passionately, clearly, and visually is more important than ever before.”
-- Garr Reynolds, Presentation Coach and Author of The Naked Presenter
Presentations are now a regular part of our personal and professional lives, forming a key part of regular communication in education, government, and industry. They have also become new forms of entertainment, as well as tools for new ways of learning and sharing. People who are learning to master this medium are becoming the influencers, the thought leaders. However, many of us are still presenting in old-fashioned ways, which assume that the audience attention can easily process large amounts of formal information.
This talk turns inside out the idea of what makes a presentation communicatively successful. You will learn that it is not about the words or structure, but about certain intangible qualities that you bring to those words. In other words, it’s not WHAT you say, it’s HOW you say it.
About the speaker Marc Anthony is an instructor in NTU’s Academic Writing Education Center and teaches courses in Academic Presentations.
