Presentation skills. Learning unit 070.

Abstract

This unit forms the first part of the 1997 Clinical Practice and Management Awards (see back page). Anyone who has attended a conference, listened to a talk or heard evidence being presented will know just how important good presentation is. If speakers cannot hold the audience's attention, the message they are trying to convey will fail to be heard, however important it is. Good presentation skills can be developed by everybody using some simple techniques and plenty of practice.
