BEP 275 – Habilidades de apresentação em inglês 2: Envolvendo seu público
Bem-vindo de volta ao Business English Pod for today’s lesson on delivering an engaging and organized presentation.
Getting up in front of a room full of people to give a apresentação em inglês can be a difficult task. Whether you’re reporting information or trying to convince people to buy something, you need to catch their attention. Then you need to keep it. And at the end of it all, you want them to walk away feeling like they learned something, or they agree with you, or they want to buy what you’re trying to sell them.
Certo, it might seem difficult, but there are skills you can learn to make it much easier. Several techniques in both presentation and delivery can help ensure an engaging apresentação de inglês that will wow your listeners.
Na lição de hoje, we’ll take a closer look at some of these techniques, including asking people to imagine a situation in order to persuade them, and focusing on the “why” behind your ideas rather than the “what.” We’ll also learn how you can use a single thread throughout your presentation and how you can transition between ideas. And finally we’ll cover how to check in with your listeners and add emphasis.
Today we’ll hear two short dialogs from different presentations. Em primeiro, we’ll rejoin a recruiter called Nick who is presenting to some potential recruits for a medical supplies company. No segundo, we’ll hear finance manager Diane continue with a report about her company’s quarterly financial results.
