Ei games presentation skills course: connecting with your audience

The coursework establishes the foundation for effective business presentations based on emotional intelligence principles aiding the effort to connect with an audience. As suggested in the material, emotions influence decision making. As such, I would say that a strong connection with the target audience is very important. Activities introduce the following concepts:

• The emotional motivation
• Building your team
• Choosing the emotional motivator
• Relationship building
• Reading the room
• Emotive interviewing
• Clues in surroundings

While reflecting on the material offered in the Presentation Skills Course and developing your paper, consider prior learning and prior work experience, in addition to the material presented. Disagreeing with the principles presented in this appropriate. However, do not reject the offered principles out of hand. Support acceptance or rejection of the offered principles with critical thinking and sound reasoning. To complete this assignment, you will need to select one of the approaches offered in one of the above videos to refer to in the below bullet points.
