New International Presentation Skills workshop achieves positive reviews
Last week saw the launch of a new programme for FCIT specifically designed for employees whose role involves significant international exposure, and who need to present to, win over and influence multi-cultural audiences.
This one-day course was attended by delegates with different international job roles from across a broad range of industries including Oil & Gas; Telecoms; Engineering; Hospitality and Pharmaceutical, and was aimed to build additional skills to help them be aware of different cultural perceptions and expectations, and to adapt their messages, information and style so that their audiences will ‘buy into’ their presentation.
The course further enabled delegates to develop effective and powerful persuasion skills, and to understand how different cultures communicate, so that they can adapt to the personal, cultural and corporate expectations of their audiences.
A Senior Global Programme Manager from Orange told us “I benefited very much from this workshop”
Other comments included:
“Thank you – a valuable day and I can see relevance for my company”
“Very relevant to my role”
“Great! Something I would have liked to spend longer than 1 day on!”
One of FCIT’s Lead Consultants delivered this workshop and told us how delighted she was with how well it was received. Designed to be interactive and informative, delegates particularly benefited from the practical elements of the day, gaining some insight into their current individual presentation style and how they will adapt this in the future.
