Improving Your Executive Presentation Skills
Whether you’re holding a training session for new hires or presenting an idea to other executives, an effective presentation style is key to engaging your audience. From using tailored messaging to polishing your overall delivery, there are many ways to improve your presentation skills:
- Tailor the Message to the Audience
Tailoring your message to your audience is a great way to personalize your presentation and keep your audience focused. As an employer or executive, you may already know your audience prior to your presentation, which should make it easy to personalize your speech. As a guest speaker, you can learn more about your audience by conducting online searches, visiting company websites and viewing public social media accounts. - Refine Delivery Skills
Refining your delivery skills is essential if you’re hoping to project a more professional executive presence. Making eye contact and smiling connects you to your audience, while timed pauses give them an opportunity to ask questions and indicate transitions between topics. Understanding the importance of body language is also crucial for delivering your key messages more effectively. - Enhance Visuals
Enhanced visuals help ensure a clear, direct and engaging presentation. Some good examples include slides and mixed media presentations, whiteboards and videos for storytelling and demonstrations.
Whether you’re a senior executive, a sales professional or a team leader, our presentation skills training will help you improve your overall communication skills as well as your ability to deliver powerful presentations.
