What is OAK?

You have 10 minutes to capture your audience’s attention. You know what you want to say, but do you truly know how to say it? The OAK Attractive Conventicles Camp (Polish: Obóz Atrakcyjnych Konwentykli) is where you learn to present in a way that ensures people genuinely listen to you.

We record your presentations, analyze them, and provide constructive feedback so you can eliminate unconscious habits and gain confidence. This is more than just a workshop—it’s a space for experimentation and networking. Because a great presentation is not just about what you say, but how you say it. Ready for the challenge?

It’s a training and integration retreat where participants engage in workshops on presentation techniques, storytelling, designing effective slides, and tailoring content to their audience.

The program is packed with activities: scientific presentations, critical feedback sessions, hands-on workshops, and meetings with inspiring guests. But OAK isn’t just about intensive learning—it’s also about building connections. Shared activities, like PowerPoint Karaoke, help participants relax and strengthen relationships, making it easier to handle the stress of public speaking.

What makes OAK unique?

Every presentation is recorded, allowing participants to see themselves through others’ eyes and recognize habits they weren’t aware of—nervous movements, tics, or lack of eye contact. While this experience can be challenging at first, it proves to be incredibly valuable.

Participants receive constructive, supportive feedback in an environment that encourages learning rather than judgment.

What skills does OAK develop?

  • Delivering clear and engaging presentations
  • Adjusting the complexity of content to the audience
  • Leading discussions effectively and defending arguments
  • Managing public speaking anxiety

OAK is more than just a presentation skills workshop—it’s an opportunity to develop soft skills that are useful in every aspect of life. Many participants return for future editions, each time gaining new insights.

If you want to present more effectively, learn from both your own and others’ mistakes, and acquire skills that will benefit you for years—OAK is the place for you!
