Vibe Check: Are Your Presentations Energized?

Presentations HAVE to be inclusive. That’s how you keep the attention of your audience.

Over 200,000 students have taken Ivan Wanis Ruiz’s Coursera course, Communication Strategies for a Virtual Age. In this episode, we have the opportunity to join them for just a taste of what Professor Ivan has to offer.

He’ll take us through how to present and promote ourselves no matter the situation. We talk about presenting to a group of three or a group of thousands. We talk about engaging virtually and in person and across generations. And finally, we talk about how to communicate better and really find out more about our peers and ourselves no matter how introverted you are!

We threw a few questions at Ivan today:

Question 1: “I am the only remote employee and my bosses are always worried I'm not working despite me logging all my hours with details of exactly what I'm working on. What can I do to better communicate with them?”

Question 2: “I KNOW I do fantastic work but I’m not so great at presenting it (and myself) to higher ups and clients. Do I have to get better at this to advance in my career and what skills would I need to improve?”
