Weekly Career Development Event: Inspiring Public Speaking and Presentation Techniques

Bandar Lampung. To continue supporting student development, Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Ekonomi Al-Madani held another engaging session of its weekly Career Development (Carment) event on Friday, November 8, 2024, at the KPA Building. This session focused on “Introduction to Inspiring Public Speaking and Presentation Techniques,” with the aim of helping students develop important skills for effective communication and presentations.

The session was led by Syofian Hadi, M.Pd., Gr., who shared valuable insights and practical tips to improve public speaking. The speaker discussed important elements such as body language, voice modulation, and the importance of maintaining eye contact with the audience. He also provided advice on how to create clear, simple, and engaging presentations, and explained the role of storytelling in making a message more memorable. Additionally, students learned how to use humor appropriately to connect better with their audience.

To give students a chance to practice what they learned, they were given the opportunity to deliver short presentations on topics such as hobbies, life experiences, social issues, food, and more. Students were provided with detailed guidelines and an outline to help them organize their presentations and present confidently. This hands-on experience allowed them to apply the techniques discussed in the session. The event ended with a Q&A session, where students could ask questions, share experiences, and receive feedback to further improve their public speaking skills.

As part of STIE Al-Madani’s weekly Career Development (Carment) program, this event is one of many opportunities offered to students to develop skills that are important for both academic and professional success. STIE Al-Madani is committed to providing a well-rounded education, preparing students for the challenges of the future workplace.
