No matter your role, standing in front of a room full of people and being able to confidently deliver a compelling message will serve you well. Even if you have mastered the message you want to express, if your presentation delivery isn't strong, your audience is less likely to take your recommendations or remember what you tell them.

In this session, Ernest Courant, will describe and demonstrate the physical and vocal skills that make up exemplary presentations. Time allowing, several members of the audience will get a chance to practice their presentation skills and get coached by Ernest.

We will cover:

• Posture and movement styles that will enhance your presence and improve how you are perceived by others

• Techniques and attitudes for building confidence and converting nervousness to excitement

• Vocal techniques that engage your audience and keep you both grounded and on message
