Manage anxiety, master delivery, and captivate your audience through a compelling and memorable message that drives business results.

You speak volumes – even before you’ve said a single word. From the way you use your hands, eyes and mouth to the way you give pause, pace and pitch to your voice, you are constantly broadcasting how you really feel – as well as how your audience should feel about you and your organization.

How confident are you about the messages you’re sending? This workshop prepares professionals who present internally and externally to manage their anxiety, their delivery and the audience while delivering a compelling and memorable message that drives business results.

Workshop Structure

Ideally, this workshop consists of four full days, with morning instructor-led workshops followed by afternoon 1:1 coaching sessions. Coaching sessions allow each participant to practice and receive feedback from the facilitator. Participants should bring real presentations (recent or upcoming) to achieve maximum impact from the session. Note that this program can be customized to reduce or increase the total session time, based on the organization’s/participants’ needs.
Videotaping and playback for this session is also available.
