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."
Doing it well, in a confident and convincing manner, it is the very best kind of marketing. Giving away free and valuable information to your audience, it is one of the very best ways to attract new business.
BUT when you present in a nervous hesitant manner, go on unprepared, read from the screen or put no energy, passion or enthusiasm into your talk you are damaging your company's reputation. It is always better not to volunteer if you see yourself with these shortcomings.
"I get terrified", "I just get tongue tied", "I go to pieces", "People see me shake with fear!"
This is the reaction of most people who are not used to standing up and talking to an audience, whatever the size!
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 practice in a safe environment with others who feel like you. 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 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 practicing your knowledge and immediately turning it into a new skill, which will become permanent.
"I just wanted to say thank you for delivering an excellent, energy charged training workshop on effective presentation skills for public speaking. The course was great fun and exceeded our expectations. I specifically appreciated the way that you tailored things to our very specific needs but for me, the most important thing is what has the result been?
The good news is that as a team, we have changed practice directly as a result of the training course and our confidence and competence has dramtically increased. In my eyes this has resulted in me thinking that the course was a very worthwhile investment." Graeme McKinnon, Commercial Director, Expense Reduction Analysts
"I think it was the best day I have had for years. I learned lots, and I think Val was pleased with the progress of us all. I was pleased with what I had achieved and how I felt at the end of the day." Mike Mahoney, Healthy Audio Limited
"Further to your course on public speaking, I would like to thank you for making the subject interesting and fulfilling. I found your coaching skills to be excellent, and your method of critique to be extremely constructive. Within a short period, my presentation skills went from less than mediocre to being, what I consider, above average, I am confident that with further lessons on methods of presentation, I can only improve on the firm foundation you have already helped build."
