Present with Confidence

1 day up to 6 participants

As a Director, HR professional or Manager, you know that it is key for your teams to be able to communicate at internal team meetings, to external clients and suppliers, or to give a keynote speech at a conference. You know that they need the ability to give a presentation that is clear, concise and confident.

Our bespoke presentations skills training courses will change your teams confidence and enable them to engage and interact with their varied audiences.

By the end of the course, delegates will be able to:

Have a greater sense of calm and control using breathing and mindset techniques.
Demonstrate executive presence by enhancing their body language.
Prevent distractions and bad habits in their body language, voice or breathing.
Exhibit gravitas by learning how to use their voice effectively.
Feel more confident in their delivery knowing they’ve had practice time and constructive feedback.
Create clear slides instead of a ‘script on a screen’.
Gain more confidence by knowing what to do, where to focus and how to continue improving.

This course begins with some pre-work using the ‘Styles, Strengths and Weaknesses’ workbook to allow us to best tailor the subsequent learning to each delegate.

On the face-to-face training, we film each participant giving their presentation (optional) and offer detailed constructive feedback. We go on to work on confident breathing, body language and voice, as well as making sure the messages on their slides are clear and concise.

Delegates will leave with two bite-sized workbooks to embed their learnings and help them prepare for their 1-hour follow-up video call (optional extra) where they will deliver a final practise presentation. We will record them, so they can see and hear all their improvements.

To conclude, they will receive the book, High-Performance Presentations, meaning they’ll learn more on the theme and continue improving beyond the course.

Other delegates say …

After an in-house training with JUST (one of the UK’s leading providers of retirement financial solutions) participants said when asked what habits and behaviours had changed:

This course helped me to change how I speak, prepare, relax, think and feel, be more succinct, talk more slowly with pauses, use a slower pace and less ‘jester’ like body language and improve posture.

Anxious or stage fright when presenting?

Dee’s presentation skills course was excellently received by the team. Every person who attended said they saw a huge difference in themselves and each other from the start of day 1 to the end of day 2. Dee’s 4MAT structure has also been hugely beneficial and is being used across the team, resulting in more concise presentations. Would highly recommend.

Before I worked with Simply Amazing Training, even the thought of presenting made me suffer from panic attacks and made me feel physically unwell. During the mindset mentoring session we uncovered the “monkeys” as Dee calls them, that were causing the issues and I learnt how to turn them into more positive thoughts instead. In another session, I learnt the tricks on the structure and preparing a presentation which gave me lots of practice which was just as well because only a few weeks later I presented at an all company conference … I felt so much better about it than I ever have before – my monkeys were under control.

I must say that making that first contact was a big step for me and I am extremely pleased with the outcome. The course is very well structured and the techniques learnt invaluable in addressing public speaking fears. We developed a good 1:1 relationship quickly. I no longer shy away from opportunities to run meetings and present updates, in fact, I have since done several types of presentations with great success. I have made a big step forward and I feel so much happier and better within myself. I am about to change role and it was my increased confidence gained from this course that gave me the impetus to seek out a different opportunity.

I decided I wanted to do motivational speaking, [The course] taught me how to structure a talk, what was my ethos, what I believed in, what were my core priorities in a talk … the things I needed to change I’ve changed … I’m happy with my talk. I thought it was full of energy, the reaction from the crowd was good [and I included] some of the key points suggested to help me so I’ve got no complaints. My confidence in how to structure a talk, how to be a speaker has grown and that’s just been working one to one.

After the Pro training, I felt very much happier, more confident and enthusiastic about my presentations. I know how to prepare and structure presentations. I know I can present well because I know how to adapt my message to what the audience wants. I now use less unnecessary hand gestures [and when I do use my hands it is for more meaningful gestures]. I am speaking more slowly and pausing more regularly [hence] less stuttering. I really liked the immediate feedback correcting me instantly.

The mindset course on ‘monkey taming’ is brilliant. For the first time, I was able to dedicate time to thinking about the things that were holding me back. The techniques and style make the ‘monkey taming’ process simple and effective, and allowed me to change my mindset.

In the Pro session, we worked on a presentation that I was to deliver at a big industry event – understanding how to get the key messages out, connect with the audience better and ultimately feel more at home ‘on stage’. I was extremely happy with my delivery and received some excellent feedback from the delegates at the conference.

Most presentation courses you come away thinking “that was great” and then forget it all… this one changes you, for the better, forever.

10/10 Better presentations! After seeing Dee speak at our annual conference I decided to sign up to her public speaking coaching lessons. I was not as confident as I’d liked to have been about preparing and delivering presentations. We tamed my ‘public speaking monkeys’ (as Dee calls them) and learnt advanced skills. Her unique approach really worked. I now feel much more confident, prepared and deliver clearer presentations. Highly recommended!

I took these programmes shortly before speaking at our annual conference and I had never spoken in public before. During the trainings, I learnt posture, better storytelling and how to speak with more pauses and less “ums”. We learnt how to present without even using PowerPoint and to easily remember what to say. Following the courses, I feel so much more prepared and clear and a lot less nervous. The conference talk went really well and everyone praised me on how well I’d done – I remembered everything I wanted to say without any slides at all.
