Rhetoric & Presentation for Product Managers
Imagine you are a gymnast on the mat. In addition to excellent physical condition, mastery of technical skills, expressiveness, self-confidence, focus and the ability to remain calm under stress are basic requirements for an outstanding performance.
It’s similar in the world of product management. Your ability to present ideas clearly and convincingly is the equivalent of a gymnast’s expressiveness – it influences how your message is received. In our Deep Dive Training ‘Rhetoric & Presentation’, we will work together on your expressiveness so that you as an entrepreneur for the product are not only heard, but also understood and can inspire and convince important decision-makers for your product projects.

The goal: Convince the management and inspire the sales team
From the initial product idea to the finished product, the product manager is the central point of contact and is constantly required to make convincing presentations. It often depends on his or her rhetorical skills and communicative powers of persuasion whether the product is received with enthusiasm or merely acknowledged.
The ability to present skilfully plays a key role that is often underestimated, but can be trained. Regardless of whether you are presenting a product idea, a decision paper or a new product, this training course will provide you with the necessary know-how and many tried-and-tested tips and tricks from practice to present confidently and confidently.
Based on our outcome-based training approach, you have the opportunity to work with or prepare your own topics and presentations so that you can already generate concrete results for your work and your company during the training. We call this Outcome based training. The ‘Rhetoric and presentation skills’ module is a building block for the PM1 Master’s certificate.
The target group: Product managers from all sectors
The training was designed for product managers who want to improve their rhetoric and presentation skills. It is aimed at all product managers, regardless of whether they are business economists, engineers or have any other training.
