The First presentation

As part of my internship, one of the responsibilities I have been given is to present information to members of the organization with regards to policies or issues within the company. Last Friday was my first presentation. Because we are nearing a heavy part of the tax season for property taxes, there has been an increased amount of work for everyone in the office. In order to compensate for the large amount of work, many of the employees are given the opportunity to work overtime. Due to the fact that the Treasurers office works using a 9/80 work schedule, the way that overtime is paid out is different then a regular work schedule. Apparently, in the past, there had been some confusion with regards to our overtime policy. So, for my presentation, I was given the charge to research information on overtime and then present it to the department. I was also told employees might have questions and so I would need to be prepared to answer them.

The presentation came, I was a little nervous but, I presented the material. It seemed as if everyone understood the information and there was only a couple of questions with regards to the policy, all of which we seemed to answer collectively.
