These tools will help presenters engage and persuade their audiences, in both academic and business settings.

By the end of the workshop, you will:

• Know practical methods to deal with nervousness.
• Know how to engage audiences from the beginning of your speech.
• Be able to identify strengths and weaknesses in presenters, including yourself.

Jay Olson, M.Sc., is a Ph.D. candidate in Psychiatry at 成人VR视频. He studies suggestion and effective persuasion. Spending most of his life as a professional magician, Jay has won several international awards for both performing and public speaking. He now helps companies, organizations, and students apply the science of public speaking to become more persuasive, engaging, and confident speakers.
