A short workplace presentation

Learn it simply

  • Lead with the result or recommendation, then develop two or three supporting points.
  • Use examples or numbers the audience can interpret.
  • A slide should support the message rather than contain the entire script.

See it. Say it. Understand it.

Easy / Start here

I recommend a two-session induction programme.

Moderate / Add a little

The next slide compares the time and staffing requirements.

More detail for teachers and confident learners

Lead with the result or recommendation, then develop two or three supporting points. Use examples or numbers the audience can interpret. A slide should support the message rather than contain the entire script. End with a specific action or decision request.

A professional communication cycle ends with a clear shared understanding. In a short presentation, explain the recommendation and evidence at the audience's level. During negotiation, distinguish essential requirements from preferences and explore a workable exchange. After agreement, confirm the exact action and timing. Review whether the communication achieved its practical purpose, and use that evidence to improve the next attempt rather than judging success only by how fluent the speaker sounded.

Negotiating a practical arrangement

Learn it simply

  • Identify what each party needs and which details are flexible.
  • Offer an option with a reason, ask about constraints and test alternatives.
  • Avoid agreeing to a condition you cannot meet.

See it. Say it. Understand it.

Easy / Start here

We can reduce the group size if an extra session is available.

Moderate / Add a little

Which is more important for you: the date or the venue?

More detail for teachers and confident learners

Identify what each party needs and which details are flexible. Offer an option with a reason, ask about constraints and test alternatives. Avoid agreeing to a condition you cannot meet. When a compromise emerges, repeat the full terms so a partial agreement is not mistaken for a final one.

Following up accurately

Learn it simply

  • A follow-up should record the agreement, responsibilities and timing in clear language.
  • Mention outstanding items separately.
  • If a fact changes after the meeting, explain the change rather than silently rewriting the original agreement.

See it. Say it. Understand it.

Easy / Start here

As agreed, our team will send the revised list by Thursday.

Moderate / Add a little

The final start time remains subject to venue confirmation.

More detail for teachers and confident learners

A follow-up should record the agreement, responsibilities and timing in clear language. Mention outstanding items separately. If a fact changes after the meeting, explain the change rather than silently rewriting the original agreement. A reliable summary helps people act and makes later clarification easier.
