When you’re speaking in front of people do you capture and hold their attention? Do you instill confidence by what you say and how you say it? In an environment where it is becoming ever more important to convey trustworthiness, competence, and authenticity, presence training has become an essential tool in professional development. This two-day workshop is designed to help academic professionals align their body language with their purpose and intentions in the present moment in order to create an effective and powerful presence. It is designed to reach the target aims through meaningful practice, individual and group activities, theater exercises, and other exercises informed by Amy Cuddy’s work on presence.

In order to apply the principles taught in a pragmatic way, all participants are required to have a 2–3-minute self-presentation prepared and ready to use.

Availability: 5 places for PhD students of EULiST partner universities
