Effective presentation requires the synthesis of many skills. The MLB Program offers hands-on workshops focusing above all on the “mechanical” aspects of presentation, e.g. body language, eye contact, voice modulation, the use of pause and interactive dynamics. Consideration will also be given to structural concepts and communication theory (i.e. auditory, visual and kinesthetic learning styles). Attendees will prepare and deliver a total of four brief presentations to their fellow workshop participants who will subsequently provide comments, feedback and suggestions.  Moreover, students will be filmed in order that they may review their own presentations and develop a greater capacity for effective self-criticism. Enrollment is limited to eight students per workshop. Students who successfully participate in the workshop will receive a transcript notation.
