Reviews
Enhancing Virtual Presentation Skills
I recently attended the “Presenting with Impact Virtually” workshop and found it to be highly beneficial. The session was well-organised and provided practical strategies for enhancing virtual presentation skills. The interactive elements and real-time feedback were particularly valuable, allowing participants to apply techniques immediately. The facilitator, Martin Chapman was knowledgeable and engaging, making the workshop both informative and enjoyable. Overall, it was a worthwhile experience that has equipped me with tools to improve my virtual presentations.
I found the training session to be exceptional and loved every moment
The trainer possessed a deep understanding of the subject, and the way he managed the pace, timing, and creatively delivered the training was outstanding.
Martin is an incredible leader!
Martin makes these sessions so engaging and gives people the opportunity to voice our own opinions and discuss them at length. He carefully listens to each and every experience and then tailors the session with useful guidance.
Great tips for virtual presentation
I like that the facilitator actually practiced these tips when presenting virtually. I saw some new features to zoom which I hadn’t used before such as using stamps. We use Teams here, so it would be great if this could perhaps be done on Teams in future too.
I like the tips on using rhetorical questions – this stood out to me and will be using this in future to give myself time to slow down and think, and also to appear confident.
Thanks!
Great session
Very engaging session with a good instructor.
