Medivation, a US biopharmaceutical company, recently partnered with Baker Communications to provide a custom, advanced presentations course on storytelling and PowerPoint skills for a group of its employees. Medivation had worked with Baker once before to deliver Negotiations training. And they turned to Baker again when seeking a training program with a deeper approach to public speaking for more advanced speakers. Working with Baker's expert instructional design team, who have specialized in presentations training for decades, Medivation engaged to deliver this highly specialized and fascinating course.
A Presentations Expert and Senior Level Instructor from Baker Communications traveled to San Francisco, CA, to meet with the staff members. Participants learned key skills and methods, such as using Character and Plot to motivate audiences to action, incorporating storyboarding to make the presentation more dynamic, and how to apply important literary techniques such as Metaphors & Analogies, Foreshadowing, and Rhetorical questions. They also learned the Golden Circle idea to help find their voice and make the message their own.
