Presentation Coaching:
Executive and Small Team Presentation Skill Coaching.
So, why does anyone NEED 1:1 Coaching for their Presentation Skills?
Well, I think I'm asking this question the wrong way around. It's not about the PRESENTER - but instead it's all about AUDIENCE IMPACT!
In many situations it's CRITICAL that you impact your audience in some meaningful way.
Let's take some examples:
 You may be a Director or Management Team presenting a business strategy/plan to your board for approval and investment. - You may be a Sales Executive presenting a proposal to a potential new account.
- You may be a Project Manager presenting your revised project plan to the sponsorship committee for renewed commitment
- You may be a Technical Consultant presenting a difficult technical idea to a group of non-technical people for sponsorship.
- You may be a Entrepreneur or Business Owner presenting a product and company for investment to a group of VCs.
- You may be a Managing Director presenting difficult news to your employees - but looking to ensure ongoing loyalty and commitment.
and often it is unsuitable to address such requirements in a group training setting. It is often more time-effective to concentrate the one requirement - YOURS -
and ensure that you get the results you want.
How Presentation Coaching Works.
According to Microsoft themselves, 30 million presentations using Powerpoint are made each day worldwide.
How effective are these presentations - do they get the required result? Often, the answer is no!
Most Presentation Skills Coaching zooms in on your Delivery skills getting your body language right and providing tricks to increase
your confidence. We take a different approach as we notice that starting with delivery skills often
DECREASES presenter confidence and comfort.
So, in our Presentation Coaching, you will :
- First work on your Audience analysis: What are the key benefits within your proposal for this specific audience?
This sets the framework for all future preparation work.
- Then, Your Story: Get your story straight and structured correctly so that you can grab the attention of your audience
in the first 90 seconds and navigate them through the key benefits within your presentation.
- Only at that point will we work on your Delivery Skills: We find that once your story has been straightened and tuned up
something miraculous happens a sense of confidence and authenticity will come into your delivery. So, we only work on delivery
skills that will really enhance your story and get buy-in from your audience.
We will work with you until the value of the proposition in your presentation becomes both obvious and attractive for your
target audience.
As a result, you can then ask your audience for their sponsorship, business, or involvement with comfort, confidence and clarity.
This Presentation Coaching is typically structured as follows:
The coaching can take place either in 2 hour segments over a number of weeks -
OR in two intensive half-days (with email feedback between each session).
To find out more about using the above approach in coaching please feel free to
