Presentation Skills for Finance Professionals

Online Course on Presentation Skills

Whatever your role, or the organisation you work in, effective presentation skills are an important part of your professional portfolio and will help to boost your career.

For many people, the idea of delivering a presentation to colleagues brings up images of standing in front of an audience and summoning up enough courage to speak. Being able to project an air of confidence and hold the room are, of course, key skills for presenters but there’s something equally important that needs to take place behind the scenes.

During this course you will explore how verbal, visual and non-verbal communication skills contribute to effective presentations while considering your audience, goals and the wider context. You’ll also discover how to manage nerves and stay on message in some of the most challenging business situations.
