One Day to Confident Presenting

 

In today's business climate, every presentation and interaction counts. Discover how to project winning presence regardless of the make-or-break scenario you're facing.

Capture your audience

Win support and resources

Lead others

Inspire decisive action

 

This engaging workshop delivers the three cornerstones of confidently and influentially presenting yourself, your ideas, and your organization:

 

Inspiring Connections help you attract your audience to you like a magnet, whether you're speaking to a single person or a crowded auditorium.

 

Compelling Messages speak to what your audience cares about, while leading them where you want them to go.

 

Dynamic Delivery captures and maintains attention by elevating your personal dynamism to transform your message into an experience your audience will feel.

 

Designed for professionals at any level of an organization, at any tier of their career, with a vested interest in presenting their own value and the value of their organization with confidence, influence, and winning presence, the curriculum includes interactive instruction, individual exercises, group experiences, and daily practices to lock in learning.
