Bringing it all Together
• Throughout this two-day program, participants are required to deliver several presentations. Feedback is given immediately after each presentation, identifying areas of strength and areas of development. The feedback is also presented to each participant in document format, allowing participants to focus on their areas of development upon returning to the workplace.
• Each presentation is video recorded on camera. Copies of the recorded presentations are given to each participant so they can self-reflect on their performance and identify action plans for ongoing and continuous improvement.
