Key takeaways for participants included a clearly structured presentation framework, confident timing combined with a persuasive presence, deliberate eye contact, and effective, professional slide design.
In a hands-on mini presentation, students immediately put what they had learned into practice. The task was to deliver a short presentation on a topic of their choice. The range of subjects spanned from favorite TV series and golf to a passion for cooking—enriched by cultural perspectives and personal creativity.
One participant summarized the added value of the workshop as follows:
“The workshop was incredibly helpful for me personally and highly applicable in the long term. I will soon be defending my bachelor’s thesis, and despite having given many presentations before, I gained valuable insights that truly made sense and offered a perspective I had not considered before.”
Formats like this exemplify what the ZMM network at Brand University stands for: practice-oriented skills development, personal growth, and immediate applicability in both academic and professional contexts. We look forward to many more inspiring events and development opportunities for our students throughout the year.
