Content
Participants learn how to build and maintain a strong connection to their audience, and discover why this must be their main focus during a presentation. Content includes preparation methods, the creation of visual / multimedia tools and successful “stage presence”.
One of the most important topics of the seminar: how to strengthen credibility through conviction, enthusiasm and logical structure. Effective methods for structuring and preparing media content for specific audiences will be shown. The creation of interesting visual aids as well as the visualization of complex information in simple, logical steps based on the SPRITE method (sequential presenting of illustrations and text elements) will be covered.

Using real-life examples, a variety of visual aids and presentation techniques will be presented and discussed, so that participants gain insights and can apply these ideas to their own presentations. Each will create and hold a presentation, which will be filmed and then examined. After evaluation, the presentations will be re-worked, held once again at the end of the seminar, and then re-evaluated. This makes progress directly tangible and paves the way for participants to work further on their own unique presentation style.

Content
The Intercultural Communication seminar is aimed at participants who work with foreign colleagues and business partners. A study on the failure of international joint ventures concluded that only 30% of failed projects were due to problems involving planning, technology, finance or the like. Around 70% of the problems were due to the behavior of managers, who had difficulties coping with new cultures.
This seminar therefore aims to identify cultural differences and provide guidance to mediate concrete situations. Content includes learning how to recognize different types of cultures and their specific characteristics.

The workshop prepares participants for encounters with people from other cultures and so that they can appropriately orient themselves in concrete situations.
Participants are taught how culture directly influences business life and management. On the way to intercultural competence, they learn to better understand their own culture and recognize the cultural differences of their business and negotiating partners.

Content
The goal of the seminar is to prepare participants to conduct their own workshops. It was developed as an answer to inquiries from corporate clients and is based on the experience collected through our own seminar activities. The presented methods have been successfully proven in practice. They can be easily learned and universally applied.
There are two types of workshops. The first is tailored toward information and concepts. The second focuses on solving problems and generating ideas using creativity techniques. Discussion involves the preparation and organization of a workshop, as well as how the needs of the participants can be addressed.

It also touches on topics such as how to use questions as a method of control and how to handle disruptive behavior. These are subjects that every workshop leader will encounter.
Through practical exercises a typical workshop situation will be simulated and the behavior of participants evaluated. In addition, various creativity techniques will be introduced and problem-solving exercises utilized.
