Strong oral presentation skills are a key to success for engineers, scientists, and other professionals, yet many speakers are at a loss to tackle the task. Systematic as they otherwise can be in their work, they go at it intuitively, sometimes haphazardly,
with much good will but seldom good results. Based on Dr. Doumont’s book<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><i>Trees, maps, and theorems,</i><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>about “effective communication for rational minds” this lecture
proposes a systematic way to prepare and deliver presentations. Among others, it covers structure, slides, and delivery, as well as stage fright. Dr. Doumont holds an engineering degree from the Louvain School of Engineering and a PhD in applied physics
from Stanford. He specializes in professional speaking, writing, and graphing, and incorporates a unique engineering perspective. More at <a href="http://www.principiae.be/" style="color: rgb(149, 79, 114); text-decoration: underline;">www.principiae.be</a>.<b><o:p></o:p></b></div>

Most research posters at conferences or in university hallways seem to defy common sense: from two steps away, passersby can’t read anything -- assuming they even get past the overcrowded layout. Posters are not magnified one-page papers. Based on Dr. Doumont's
book<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><i>Trees, Maps, and Theorems</i>, about "effective communication for rational minds," this lecture discusses how to create more visual posters that get attention, facilitate navigation, and convey messages through
strict selection, careful phrasing, and effective layout.<o:p></o:p></div>
