How a Simple Workshop Unleashed Hidden Talents and Boosted Confidence in Public Speaking - CiteHR

Hello Everybody,

I want to share my experience about a workshop which I recently conducted in Pune.

The workshop was for an IT company, and the topic is "Presentation Skills & Business Communication."

During the workshop, I divided the employees into 4 groups, and there were many activities that they had to do as a team.

One such activity was to create a new and innovative product and try to sell it to the audience. The team consisted of 4 members. The responsibilities were shared as below:

- Member 1: Will introduce the product to the audience and explain the features.
- Member 2: Will concentrate and explain only about the USP of the product.
- Member 3: Will quote the cost and describe how this product is best compared to others.
- Member 4: Will answer the questions put forward by the audience.

The entire activity went so well. I was very much impressed by looking at their innovative ideas.

One team came up with a new mobile phone in which you can listen to music in the background while talking to your friends on the phone.

Another team came up with an automatic iron which has some creative features.

Another team came up with a newly designed database.

The last team came up with a new digital camera, which has the features of a video recorder and very high resolution power.

Some of the products thought about are possible to manufacture and some might not.

But the main thing is, each one of us can think innovatively. We have the confidence to talk openly before people. We can present things very interestingly before people.

But what happens is - most of us hide our talent within ourselves. We are afraid of what others say.

My simple advice is please don't bother about what people think about you. If you know what you are doing right and not harming anybody, then just go ahead and do it.

During this workshop, some team members who were hesitating to speak before the audience at the start of the workshop were speaking excellently and without nervousness towards the end.

If one day can make such a difference, then if you practice every day, it will bring a great change.

If any of you are interested in conducting similar workshops in your organization too, please let me know.

TOGETHER LET'S MAKE IT HAPPEN.

What ideas did you introduce before giving this 'game'? How many hours did you spend on this? How could they be motivated to do such an excellent job? How much time did you allow them for formulating and presenting their 'ideas'?
