Do This. It Works: Your Step-by-Step Guide to Authentic and Effective Presentation Skills.

This highly interactive session takes the participants through a step-by-step practice of the intellectual and physical skills necessary to make a great presentation. Whether you have to explain a plan to your assistant or present a Strategic Plan to the Partners, what you say and how you say it is vital, and this program shows you exactly how to get the results you want.

Speaker: Susan Murphy

Susan Murphy has in-depth knowledge and experience in the AEC industry. She has spent the last twenty years helping architects, engineers and construction firms hone their presentation and interview skills.

Murphy, as most know her, has had a mapquest worthy career path. In high school and college, she worked in retail and as a fashion coordinator, went on to teach high school English, moved to the travel industry, where she began as an international tour director and ended as Director of Travel Industry Marketing for Club Med. A career change found her at Communispond, the world’s leading communication skills consultant at the time, and fate led her to a SMPS National Conference, where she filled in for a cancelled speaker and was smitten by the industry. 

Susan founded Murphy Motivation and Training to focus on the AEC world and thinks she is the luckiest woman on the planet to have found her niche. 

Susan divides her time between Beaufort, SC and Bozouls, France. When she isn’t teaching, coaching or writing, she hikes with her dogs, Frankie and Lulu, neither of which is very impressed with her training abilities.
