Video chats have become a constant presence in the daily work routine of all academics and employees. Nonetheless, the attitude required to deal with a videoconference is different from that used in a face-to-face meeting and the lack of this attitude in this new communication channel can lead to misunderstandings and false signals.
The aim of these two short workshops that build upon each other is to familiarise participants with the basics of good presentation techniques and support them in their efforts to communicate more successfully. In part one we will focus on using body language, articulation and voice in support of a more effective communication. In part two all participants will have the opportunity to try out these presentation skills in a presentation of their own choosing. Each participant will receive individual feedback and advice.
