About the Program

Some of the themes that will be addressed are getting to the point quickly when presenting to sponsors (concise presentations with the details in the appendix), informing management the purpose of your presentation (informational, action/decisions required, etc.), courageous conversations, and venues to improve communication skills (Toastmasters, etc.).
