International Business Communicators:

Power Presentation the Easy Way: How to Engage and Persuade

Date: Friday, December 14th, 2007 Time: 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Speaker: Robert Burnside

Description:
This is a superstar presentation. Robert Burnside, corporate presentation coach is the President of Empowr Co. Ltd. and the author of Powertalk leadership communication programs. He has run his own consulting company for 15 years. He has coached or written speeches for CEOs and other executives from some of Japan's most sucessful companies. He also trains in New Zealand. He has a lot of stories: he has worked in more than 60 countries on seven continents and has made literally thousands of presentations in four language.

We hear a lot of buzz about 'narative' -- about using stories -- in communication, but what does this mean? Can a story engage a hard-nosed banker or close a sale? And what is a story anyway? People will buy into your idea, or buy your product, when they have reached their own conclusions their own way. You cannot force them to listen, or think, or accept you reasoning. And that's where good stories are powerful to engage attention and then lead the listener willingly towards the conclusion you want. Robert will explain and demonstrate how and why stories work, how to use them especially in sales presentations. Please visit our web site ibcjapan.net.
