When you make a presentation, whether it is to colleagues, clients, prospects or
professional contacts you are saying “I’ve earned the right to be up here; I’m
an expert.”

When you do it well i.e. in a confident and convincing manner it is the very best way of
marketing. When you give away free and valuable information to your relevant
audience it is one of the very best methods to attract new business.

BUT, when you present in a nervous hesitant manner, go on unprepared, read from the screen, put no energy, passion or enthusiasm into your talk you are damaging your
company’s reputation.

It will always be better not to volunteer if you see yourself with the shortcomings in the previous paragraph.

Most people, however deep their knowledge is, shy away from presenting.

This is the reaction of most people who are not used to standing up and talking to an audience.... whatever the size…..

"I get terrified":  "I just get tongue tied":  "I go to pieces":   "People see me shake with fear"

In just one day we help move you from having those fears to feeling: 'Hey, I can do this after just a few hours'.  No longer will presenting be a serious challenge in your professional career.

The workshop is designed for you to practise in a safe environment with others who feel like you do.

This is an interactive workshop where most of your time will be spent presenting or listening to and assessing other colleagues who also want to improve their presentation skills.

The following areas will be covered:

      •     Understanding why we make the presentation
      •     Controlling our nerves
      •     Knowing and focusing on our audience
      •     Room and equipment planning
      •     Preparing your talk
      •     The secrets of a powerful and effective presentation
      •     How to start your talk in a confident and interesting way
      •     How to keep your audience interested throughout
      •     Creating a great experience for your audience

Can we reiterate, most of the above list is theoretical knowledge and the time you actually spend on these items will be minimal.  Throughout the workshop you will be practising your knowledge and immediately turning it into a new skill, which will become permanent.

The result of this is that you will want to present more, you therefore become more visable and in the longer term you will raise your profile and attract more business.
