Thought Leadership: Presentation Training

Are you a university scientist preparing to discuss your work with potential donors? Are you a corporate researcher who needs to get the message across to non-technical colleagues? It is difficult to break through stovepipes, silos or whatever compartmentalized spaces you find yourself.
