INSPIRING PRESENTERS MASTERCLASS SERIES

Presenting is a time in your professional life when you are at your most vulnerable. You must perform or ‘die’. Our two biggest fears as adults are of failing and of embarrassing ourselves IN PUBLIC! And every presentation offers both these opportunities on a silver platter.

To add to this potent mix, the moment you stand up to speak all your other insecurities come bubbling to the surface. Will they like me? Did I prepare enough? Hope my slides work. I should have worn the other outfit. 

Most of us respond to this pressure by seeking safety in morphing into a shrink-wrapped, low-resolution version of ourselves. Which is why you often see funny, animated people become wooden and robotic when presenting. Then you discover that training can help you. 

Skilling and training are important. But how many presentation skills training programs, workshops, masterclasses or seminars have you already participated in? For most professionals the answer is usually somewhere between some and too many. 

You may also feel you never seem to get off this training bandwagon. While the strategies and techniques may be good and effective, they depend on you implementing them. 

The other challenge is remembering and applying what you learn. Everything seems like a good idea in the workshops, but once outside, real life hits you and it all becomes too hard. Or you make small, incremental changes, but the opportunity to win that pitch or promotion arrives before you are match fit. You’re playing a long game. What’s scary is that at this snail’s pace of improvement you may not realise your full potential before it’s time to retire! 

But now there’s a solution – the one ring to rule them all. The presentation training to end all presentation training.
