Communicating research can be challenging, as it often involves complex topics that need to be presented in a way that both engages and holds the audience\u2019s attention.<\/p>\n
This is why the course “The Rhetorical Toolbox” was a valuable opportunity for colleagues who had the chance to participate. This intensive course, focusing on oral communication and presentation techniques, was designed to strengthen participants\u2019 ability to present complex topics in a clear and engaging manner\u2014ensuring their messages were both heard and remembered.<\/p>\n
Lisbeth Leinum from the Urology Department at Zealand University Hospital, a project colleague from the Interreg-\u00d6KS project OPTIMIZE, took part in the course, which was held by external consultants in Frederiksberg during November and December.<\/p>\n
During the intensive two-day course, participants learned how to formulate precise messages, create vivid mental images for their audience, and use body language effectively to support their key points.<\/p>\n
One of the most innovative methods introduced was the use of mnemonic tools, such as \u201cthe bridge\u201d and \u201cthe horse Rufus\u201d, which helped make theories easier to remember and apply in practice.<\/p>\n

“Over the course of two days, with the help of rhetorical techniques (occasion, the bridge, and the horse), I gained concrete tools and effective training in delivering a persuasive presentation. This has made me more confident when presenting.”
