Yahoo! Finds Exceptional Presentations Training Partner in Baker Communications

Yahoo!, one of the Internet’s most respected web services providers, has chosen Baker Communications to deliver Exceptional Presentation Skills to their finance department. Operating in a global environment, Yahoo! must often conduct highly technical financial meetings for participants from many different backgrounds and priorities. Yahoo! was looking for a way to enhance the presentation of financial data to key audiences. After contacting Baker Communications, Yahoo! believed that Baker’s Exceptional Presentations training would enable their financial teams to present important information to industry experts, as well as team members, smoothly, effectively, and persuasively.

Two Baker Communications Senior Level Instructors and Exceptional Presentations Experts will travel to Santa Clara, California to work with Yahoo! finance team members. During the training course, participants will receive hands-on practice developing their own presentations using the A.S.I.A. format, a powerful, but simple presentations tool to help presenters quickly gain and maintain audience interest. Participants in this highly interactive presentations training workshop will also learn other critical skills, such as the use of body language to create rapport and enhance credibility. Throughout the Exceptional Presentations training event, attendees will receive custom one-on-one coaching through the use of 10 digitally recorded presentations at key points throughout the training.
