In this intensely competitive world, the ability to pitch effectively – for new business, or more resources, or a better job – has never been more important.
In this presentation and workshop, leading communication skills coach Jim Gray reveals the 10 rules of power pitching, rules that can help you compete and win – when the pressure is the greatest, and the stakes are the highest.
Gray covers the 10 rules of power pitching, with a compelling narrative that includes plenty of real life examples, and several entertaining video clips.
During the workshop portion, Gray introduces three challenging pitching scenarios. Attendees will organize themselves in groups of four to develop a presentation, based on one of the scenarios. Each group then delivers its pitch – no more than three minutes in length.
In the review and wrap up, Gray covers the lessons learned, then closes out the session by relating three key next steps for improvement.
