Effective Speaking and Presentation skills
Knock the socks off any audience by improving your ability to present and speak in public.
Public speaking. Merely mentioning it is enough to make you break out in a cold sweat. But, to compete in today's fast-paced, integrated business world you will often have to rely on your ability to communicate to large groups. Here's the secret: public speaking doesn't have to be stressful and, with proper training and skills, effective communication in your public speaking can become the key ingredient to your success.
So, why not let us help you get really good at it.
In just two and a half days, our effective speaking and presentation skills course will equip you with all the tools you'll need to present to any audience - whether it's to external conference delegates, your team, a board of directors or your colleagues. Above all, you'll benefit from highly personalised coaching sessions because we take no more than ten delegates in each course.
Who is this public speaking course right for?
If your job involves communicating to multiple people at once, this course is for you. Whether you're a business executive with some speaking and presentation experience, or a junior manager tackling the 'beast' as a novice, we'll teach you effective presentation skills at your required level, and give you the tools to present with more ease, less stress and greater impact. Learn to:
- Address management and staff in a way that engages and resonates with them;
- Speak with poise and confidence at meetings and conferences;
- Give polished and professional sales presentations;
- Make effective communication appearances, including TV and radio.
What does the course involve?
At the end of two and a half days, you'll have a host of new public speaking skills including:
- How to create killer presentations in less time;
- How to structure your presentations so that your ideas, facts and supportive arguments flow logically and easily;
- How to improve your delivery style and projection;
- How to present a high impact talk to any chosen audience.
Our course is highly practical, which means we tread lightly on theory in order to focus on a hands-on approach: you'll deliver six presentations during the course, which gives you maximum time to practise and polish your skills as you learn how to present. You'll also get personal assistance, since you'll practise presentation skills alongside no more than nine other delegates. Finally, our one-on-one feedback on your public speaking will give you quality, constructive feedback on where you went wrong and where you can improve. We do this by recording you while you present, and then going through the video with you in a separate breakaway room individually afterwards.
75% of past participants rated the practical public speaking experience and intense one-on-one coaching as the two features of our course which contributed most to the improvement in their presentation skills.
