Do you have a program, topic or service that would be of interest to Workplace Learning Professionals?  Do you have a presentation or training program you’d like expert feedback on?  In November you will have an opportunity to participate in a unique evening of Speed Presenting!

The concept is simple. A series of PowerPoint presentations; each presentation is no more than 20 slides; each slide shown for 20 seconds on a timer. The presenter has a crisp 6 minutes, 40 seconds to present his or her idea, service or topic.  The professionals in the audience will be able to provide written feedback to each individual.  Prizes will be awarded in several categories.

Let’s face it, Workplace Learning Professionals are not known for brevity.  We can expand and expound on many subjects but can we boil our message down to less than 7 minutes?  If you were presenting this to a client or executive, you’d be lucky to get that long.  Are you up for the challenge?
