Pitching
Mark Robinson
Technical people often have great ideas – but they struggle to have non-technical (management) people buy into them.
In this 90 minute interactive workshop, Mark will show you:
- How can you create a persuasive pitch?
- How can you get people’s attention from the start of your pitch?
- What is a great structure for a pitch?
Many of the ideas discussed can be directly applied to your regular presentations as well, to make them more clear, focused and memorable.
Come prepared with your questions and ready to learn a new, valuable skill!
Preparation previous to workshop
Please prepare a pitch of maximum two minutes. Everyone will get a chance to practice their pitch live!
