Presentation Skills Workshops
Everybody is a Star: Professional Presenting with Poise, Power, Confidence.
Even in our age of endless selfies, videos, social media, reality shows and self promotion, some things never change:
A 2015 study on fear conducted in seven countries revealed that more people - a full 75% of respondents! - stated they were more afraid of speaking in public than anything else in life. More than spiders, clowns, heights, flying, the dark - more, even, than death. Yes, 75% of us would rather die than give a presentation in front of an audience!
Well, fear no more. Presenting, aside from giving you an opportunity to shine in public, can an actually be a fun, exciting, rewarding, empowering process. My unique approach to presentation preparation combines elements from the disparate worlds of
--empowerment coaching, positive psychology and cognitive behavioral therapy, which will help you make deep connections with your audience
--yoga, breathing and meditation, through which you'll learn relaxation, and how to find and focus your power
--acting and performance, learning basic techniques to use your physical/vocal "instrument" to find humor, create drama, and bring your script to life
--screenwriting, to help you craft a more engaging, compelling, convincing, relevant story that touches people viscerally as well as intellectually.
I recently completed series of Presentation Skills Workshops for Innoleaps (innoleaps.com), a branch of Startupbootcamp (startupbootcamp.org), working with marketing teams from Heineken USA and Unilever/Lipton on presenting their research findings confidently and clearly, persuasively and powerfully, meaningfully and memorably. Each brought the house down - and achieved their goals!
Let's discuss how I can help you and your team{s) present like a pro, and shine like a star,
Live Your Best Life, and Bring Your Best Self to Everything You Do!
