This course is designed to improve your development and delivery of high impact presentations through persuasion, storytelling and influencer techniques. Explore the effective use of persuasion through three components: ethos - credibility, logos - evidence and data, and pathos - emotional appeal. Assimilate storytelling and influencer techniques to impact communication and presentation skills. Participants will deliver a short presentation to the class, receiving feedback prior to analyzing effective presentation techniques. Participants will develop a second short presentation and deliver it at the end of the class; they will be digitally recorded and will receive feedback to enhance their presentation skills. Participants will develop and deliver a short presentation to the other attendees. Attendees will evaluate the presentations using a rubric provided by the presenters; measuring the appropriate use of the techniques and strategies taught during the academy. Participants will fill out a feedback rubric to reflect on their presentation and write summary statements on each area reflecting improvements for enhanced presentation skills.
