Effective presentation skills for library managers
16 June, LAHQ, London
Whether promoting a library, trying to get resources, or introducing
policies to staff, good presentation can help to achieve a desired
outcome whilst poor presentation can reduce the impact of the most
well-thought out argument. Getting ideas across to users or committees
requires attention to presentation skills. Knowing some of the most
persuasive words in the language may be useful, but it takes much more
than words to make a real impact.
How will this event help you?
This event is intended to encourage awareness of what makes a good
presentation. It gives opportunities to practise key skills. It is
designed for anyone who has to speak on behalf of their library or
department, or who would like to ensure that they create a good
impression when speaking to colleagues.
By the end of the course you will:
* understand the reasons for developing
your presentation skills
* recognise bad presentation and analyse its causes
* know how to assess the needs of an audience
* have examined the key features of good
presentation
* have practised some skills
Workshop leader: Dr Gill Burrington has wide experience of teaching and

libraries and in industry. She is a former president of The Library
Association.
