Making Facts & Figures Fascinating

December 16, 2021 - December 8, 2024

A course participant presenting to a class under the watchful eye of the course tutor

A practical presentation skills training workshop designed for anyone who wants to present facts, figures and data in a more engaging, absorbing and entertaining way.

MAKING FACTS AND FIGURES FASCINATING is practical presentation skills workshop is designed for anyone who struggles to connect with their audience as a result of having to communicate large volumes of facts, figures and data. Too often these data-driven presentations can alienate audiences – leaving them overwhelmed, confused, disconnected or just plain bored. However, by applying proven storytelling and presentation skills & techniques – even the most-dense, data-driven presentations can be made absorbing, entertaining and engaging. “Making Facts & Figures Fascinating” allows your team to connect with their audience with greater impact than ever before by utilising preparation and performance techniques which facilitate a greater level of interest, engagement and understanding from any audience when public speaking.

During the workshop, we explore the concepts of intrigue, curiosity, and suspense, and work through three clear presentation structures which have been proven to enhance audience engagement. Through a variety of practical exercises, participants will be invited to re-organise the information in their presentations according to these 3 different structures, with each structure bringing a different flavour and approach – allowing the presenter to change up their presenting style to suit any audience, message or purpose.

Participants on this workshop will:

  • Feel confident that they can make any presentation which is rich in facts and figures, fascinating.
  • Explore the importance of using proven, pre-existing structures to drive maximum message impact.
  • Learn how to order information so that it can be best absorbed by any audience.
  • Learn presentation skills & techniques that make data irresistible.
  • Understand the power of “The Edit”.
  • Learn how to use facts and figures to awaken curiosity in the audience.
  • Understand the relationship between Form & Content.
  • Understand the role of the Body, Breath and Voice plays when presenting facts and figures.

What people say About This Course

I went from a 3 to a 10, thank you.
AndrewClient service manager, Marketing Participant on Presenting Made Brilliant/ Public Speaking- Fighting the Fear 
This was one of the best programmes I have attended in a number of years. It has provided me with a set of tools I can use when presenting and speaking with key stakeholders and employees.
ElaineHR Manager, Pharmaceuticals
I found the training excellent! As an Administrator I didn’t expect to get so much out of the training, but I really did! It has given me more confidence to participate in meetings and taught me how to deliver information in an engaging and concise manner. I would highly recommend to anyone!
HollyAdministrator, Financial Services
This was a very enjoyable and informative online training experience. I learned plenty from the content and even more from observing the facilitator. Andrew did a fantastic job, thank you.
ClaireProgrammne Manager, Utilities
I loved this training, really engaging and although online the morning flew. I liked the links to the research too. I will be taking the tips and new skills learned into my practice and hopefully help create a more engaged communication environment. Thank you.
EmmaLiteracy Coordinator, Training & Education
I didn’t really know what to expect when I signed up for this training, I just knew it sounded interesting and like something I would benefit from. It was really refreshing to have a training that wasn’t led on powerpoint, and to be a lot more discussion focussed. I feel that really allowed us to consider what was being said, and not get distracted. I was nervous when it came to the role play scenarios, but actually felt energised from taking part, and feel I learnt so much from participating, as well as watching the other attendees. All in all, a fantastic day, with a lot of learnings to take away.
ZoeBrand Manager, Pharmaceuticals
I felt the course was very engaging and refreshing in that we weren’t lectured to with a dull set of slides. The course tackled some key workplace issues but also offered some food for thought on how our practices outside of work can impact our performance. I felt that the assessors were very sincere and non-judgemental whilst also ensuring the session was kept light-hearted. I would definitely recommend this course, even to those who wouldn’t necessarily think they need it, as there is learning in there for everyone.
Erin HR Associate, Pharmaceuticals
This really helped to reignite my enthusiasm for my job and public speaking
CaoimheTour Guide
Debra is a fantastic trainer and she created a unique and very welcoming group setting during the online workshop. The content was well chosen and fits very well to the everyday need of business women. The opportunity to try out the techniques presented instantly boosted the confidence to speak in public (and gave guidance how to practice and become better in the future).
AliceL & D Manager, Pharmaceuticals
This workshop was superbly facilitated, and I would highly recommend to anyone who wishes to maximise the impact of their presentations.
CarmelLearning and Research, Financial Services
I loved the training on Impact & Influence for Women in Business. It was an empathetic and safe space to learn, try out techniques and practice. I thought recognising and understanding the power of posture, voice and breath work is critical to women to improve confidence and being heard. Thank you.
RitaInnovation Designer
I would highly recommend this course to everyone who presents, who manages meetings, who facilitates groups. It provides life skills that are practical and with practice adoptable. It was engaging, well paced and everyone got something from it. An excellent course.
