COURSE ABSTRACT:
A masterpiece proposal can be killed by poor presentation for lack of self-improvement in communication. Therefore, it is becoming clear around the world that presentation counts enormously for workplace success - particularly improvement in innovative thinking and communication at the level of presentation to others. Due to pressures to think alike, critical thinking does not come easily. By handling selected controversial topics to illustrate how critical thinking works, the course brings about in the participants a new way of looking at things. Moreover, it helps one cope in the most treacherous times at the workplace - times of change. Apart from preparing one to think and accept change, the course explains how to make effective presentation of proposals, reports, speeches and training schemes: all these come alive for adoption due to effective presentation.
