Description
Please register (first come first served principle) by sending an Email To: Annette Sturm (imprs-office@mpp.mpg.de) Description: Convince with your conference talk - presentation skills for scientists Presenting your results is part of being a scientist: in your group seminar, on a conference, for your PhD defense or for the general public. How can you do this convincingly? The topics covered by this workshop are: Planning and structure Memorable start and ending Speech, voice and body language Visualization and presentation media Slide composition Difficult situations Personality and character Video-feedback My trainings are “work”shops, meaning that the participants apply the learned material to your own presentations right there. Therefore everybody should bring presentations (old or upcoming ones) to work with. I ́m giving presentation skills workshops especially for scientists, because speaking the same language is a great advantage for tailoring the presentations effectively. Secondly, I know that most scientists talk about their topic with shining eyes. Often that excitement is gone, the moment they stand in front of a crowd. To tap into this enthusiasm during your talk is very important to me. And for that enthusiasm to reappear you need to feel save with what you are doing in your presentation.
