1. PRESENTATION SKILLS for SUCCESS
This practical workshop is FUN! Using humour mixed with practical exercises, we demystify the art of
communicating effectively and clearly. As we explore both verbal and non-verbal communication techniques,
we learn to recognize how we use body, voice, eye contact and even colour to communicate ideas,
interests and needs (both positive and negative). Come and learn how to sell yourself and your wonderful ideas.
