"The human mind is not a vessel that needs to be filled but wood that merely needs to be kindled!" (Plutarch) I can show your audience that even supposedly "dry" topics can inspire an audience and why outdated presentation techniques undermine the very trust they seek to win with their data. Technical and scientific presentations all too often follow the same old tired schemes that are inefficient at actual knowledge transfer and slow down the spread of new discoveries and methods. Even commercial scientific marketing presentations regularly fall to the same pitfalls. That doesn't have to be the case. Let's "light some fires" and excite people for our discoveries and developments! Dr. Oliver Hauss, a Medical Science Trainer and Consultant with experience in both the diagnostic and pharmaceutical industries, has worked on both the local and international level. Oliver can support your training, events and medical marketing, helping both your customers and stakeholders to realize the value and importance of your offerings or your employees and coworkers to communicate it in an understandable and engaging fashion. Achievements: * Best pitch of the evening, TEDx Heidelberg Pitch Night 2019 * Contributed to launch of a new product generation with positioning recommendations and launch-accompanying symposia * Significantly improved processes to turn symposia into physical marketing material, leading to a reduction in production time of over 50% * Advised Board on in-licensing decisions * Contributed the training of distributors, field force and customers Specialties: Public Speaking, Medico-scientific training, Oncology, Hematology, Life Sciences, HealthCare, Medical Devices, In vitro diagnostics Medical Writing,
