Whether you’re an experienced presenter or speaker and you want to inject a new lease of life into your presentations, or you’re new to presenting and want to learn how to deliver with style and confidence, this course if for you. Are you seeking new and engaging ways to get your message across, make an impact and keep your audience hanging on your every word? If so this two day course is for you. 

On day one you'll learn how to plan and structure your presentations in order to create a compelling story, build a relationship with your audience and get your message across clearly and successfully.  

On day two you'll learn how to manage your nerves successfully and to use your voice and your body language to deliver your presentation with confidence, authority and enthusiasm.

A maximum of six places are available, so that everyone gets individual attention and meets their own personal priorities for the day, and to allow for plenty of opportunity for practice and feedback.

  • Structure your presentation so that your audience really pays attention
  • Use innovative techniques to create real impact  without going near Powerpoint
  • Engage and stimulate your audience
  • Understand where nervous symptoms come from and use a range of strategies to harness and use nervous energy effectively
  • Improve your breathing, vocal tone and voice projection
  • Use body language and your voice to deliver your message with authority, confidence and enthusiasm

Most importantly, you will leave the session sounding great, looking professional and able to plan and deliver great presentations which you and your audience both enjoy.

"The breathing and focusing techniques along with how to plan the speech and looking at who your target audience are were all great!"
Helen Lacey, Managing Director, Red Berry Recruitment

"I couldn't have given my presentation today without you, that's for sure, so a big thank you. I learnt so much and without a doubt, my content was far far better after your help. It took me out of my comfort zone and made me look at things with a fresh eye. I didn't feel I needed powerpoint at any stage!"  Richenda Oldham, Director ROPR
 
"I just wanted to say a personal thank you for the training course  - I gained so much from it. In fact, I went to see some fundraisers on Saturday morning and was asked to do a speech, on the spot to 50 people! Thanks to your calming techniques, I was able to compose myself and put together a thank you speech which came across well.
Wow, what a different two days can make!"  Stephanie Cherington-Rimmell, Fundraising Manager, CLIC Sargent
