Workshop – Professional Presentations in the Academic World

The workshop ‘Professional Presentations in the Academic World’ supports participants in preparing for presentations of all kinds – conference talks, doctoral defense and more. This workshop will provide you with the theoretical knowledge and practical skills to present yourself confidently and competently. It will cover a range of topics including expressive behaviour, speaker impact, speech structure and dealing with difficult question.Through theoretical input, numerous exercises and targeted (video)feedback, participants are made aware of their own and others’ presentation behaviour and guided to make improvements.
The workshop aims to answer the following questions:
• How do I come across as a speaker?
• How do I come across in terms of body language, voice and choice of words?
• How do I structure and present my content?
• How can I hold the attention of my audience
