Timelines and Expectations Percentage Value of Task: 10% (30 marks). Due: Week 4 – Sunday 18, April 2021, 23:59 pm. Minimum time expectation: This task will take approximately 10 hours to complete. Learning Outcomes Assessed The following learning outcomes are assessed by completing this assessment: K2, K4, A1. 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.
