Engaging Presentations™
Grab the attention of others and keep it with Engaging Presentations™. Learn how to structure a presentation quickly, pace your speech and manage your nerves. You’ll discover how to use gesture, voice and words to both on-line and in-person to give a compelling talk.
- Are you feeling stuck in your career, knowing you have so much to offer but struggling to convey your ideas effectively?
- Are you tired of being overcome by nerves, overpowered by slides, or feeling like you're not engaging your audience?
You’re not alone, and I’ve got something for you…
‘Engaging Presentations’, is a comprehensive online course designed to transform your presentation skills and boost your confidence.
This is the key to unlocking opportunities you’ve been missing out on, and it doesn’t involve sounding ‘salesy’ or inauthentic.
Here’s the problem:
- You need to sell ideas, products, services… but hate sounding salesy
- Nerves overcome you when you speak
- You know that people aren’t as engaged in your presentation as you’d wish them to be
- Your vocal and physical delivery needs switching up: but how do you do this without feeling like ‘a fake’
- Presence is something others have and you don’t know how to acquire
- You’re using slides as a script but don’t feel confident enough to let go of them
Maybe you’re making these mistakes:
- Speaking faster to get it over with
- Spending ages on slides but not on your central message
- So overcome with nerves that you can’t even think about your flat voice
- You know you need to engage your audience
- Being so overcome by nerves you can't enjoy presenting
- You excluding some of your listeners
Imagine this:
- When you present, even online, you’re so captivating that Senior Leaders - who weren’t even there - hear about you.
- Your message has both the technical and non-technical listeners acting on your message.
- You’re suddenly able to close deals that couldn’t win you a dime.
- Your audience are not only engaged from the start of your talk, but you have them in the palm of your hand throughout and are remembered way after for being a compelling presenter.
