"Making the Message Matter: Presenting Results with Purpose"

During this session participants will learn to identify multiple audiences and their needs to construct a targeted and meaningful project deliverable. We will practice discussing projects in multiple formats: elevator pitch, visual presentation and executive summary report. Additionally, participants will have an opportunity to learn to handle questions and contentious project feedback with expertise and grace.
