SPEAKER TRAINING WITH AWARD-WINNING PROFESSIONAL SPEAKER

Speaking is an art form, there is a lot to work on and it can be overwhelming.
​Everyone – and we mean everyone – can be a much better speaker than they are today, with just a little bit of targeted coaching. 

We have a range of training formats to support your specific personal and professional goals, and all of them support you to:

• Never feel nervous again 
• Influence every person in the room 
• Deliver your presentation with less planning and no notes

We will develop you in the basic pillars of getting great at public speaking:

• A strong opening
• A compelling close
• Content structure
• Self-expression
• Stage presence 
• Overall confidence

And the great news is that by simply focusing on “your magic three” (three personalised actions created just for you), you can dramatically increase your speaking confidence quickly.

 

PERSONAL COACHING

TAILORED ONE-TO-ONE COACHING SO YOU CAN DELIVER YOUR SPEECH WITH IMPACT

 

WE SAY SO

THE MOST UNDER-UTILISED LEADERSHIP SKILL IN BUSINESS IS PUBLIC SPEAKING

When staff are trained in a corporate environment, they often fail to get the best out of their training:

• They don’t perform as well as they could in training because they are nervous in front of their peers
• The training is really ‘just theory’ because they don’t have a specific event to speak at​
• They never get the opportunity for regular practice
• The experience of training often confirms to them that public speaking is really something they’d rather not do!​

Let's change that for good. We will create a regular practice environment for your staff where they can come to associate speaking with fun and see tangible improvements over time.

​You’ll be amazed at how the confidence a person gains from improving at public speaking improves their confidence in all aspects of their work.

​If you’re building leadership capability in your organisation, public speaking must not be overlooked.

IDEAL FOR: leadership teams, senior management, customer facing staff and anyone wanting to present at conferences

HIGH IMPACT SPEAKER TRAINING

PERSONAL IMPACT
When you learn how to give a stunning presentation, your increased confidence expands into all areas of your life. Our belief is that confident public speaking is the most under-utilised sales and marketing initiative and is an essential skill for leaders in any field.
​

PROFESSIONAL IMPACT
As well as the positive impact that confident delivery has on YOU, your audience is massively impacted. The influence you have over the audience is significantly increased and our ARM© models teaches you how to get the full focus of every person in the room: 

• Attention – they listen to your message
• Retention – they remember your message
• Mention – they talk about your message for all the right reasons!​ ​
