A morning in Asia and an afternoon in the Americas

Presentation Skills

Currently, we are running our digi-physical course in Presentation Skills. Today, at the midpoint of the 28-day program, we held a digital Q&A session where participants received answers and feedback on the challenges they faced during the program. Since the participants are spread across the globe we held two sessions, one the morning and one in the afternoon. In two weeks, the program will conclude with a coaching session. Before that, the groups will meet in a workshop to practice their presentations.
