Participation

For doctoral candidates of all disciplines.

Objectives

This workshop is about presenting convincingly in scientific and non-scientific contexts and getting to the point of one's own core messages. Participants will learn how to gain the interest of their audience and keep their attention. The focus is on active exercises in body language, vocal expression and personality. Participants learn how to use their breath, the effect of their voice and non-verbal language as supporting elements for a strong performance. Based on this, a quick-witted handling of critical questions can be trained. Individual feedback makes one's own potential visible, strengthens one's self-image in appearance and thus the confident effect in the outside world.
