Assessment Details Background Being able to present to an audience is an essential skill for project manager to develop. There are a variety of different settings where project managers may be required to present, from a small team meeting, to a large corporate board and shareholder meeting. It is important that every presentation take account of whom the audience is. A presentation delivered to an interdisciplinary audience who may have no specialist knowledge of your field will be very different to a presentation in front of learned specialists – even if you are presenting essentially the same project at both venues. For assistance in giving oral presentations, see: http://federation.edu.au/future-students/study-atfeduni/student-support/student-futures-program/study-skills/oral-presentations Requirements You are required to give an oral presentation, with an accompanying software presentation, on a person you consider to be a successful leader (e.g. JFK, a friend etc).

This assessment will give you an opportunity to research a leader that you admire. As a minimum your presentation should provide details of your chosen persons’: a). leadership style and characteristics, b). stories of their successes, c). why they appeal to you, and d).
