Speaking confidently and impressively in meetings and in public

Some professionals, even though not the best in their field, have a magnetism that draws people in. Conversely, some real experts fail to get people to take them seriously. This session will show how to:

• Project confidence when under pressure by creating (not faking) confidence.
• Make a positive impression in meetings (real and virtual) – choosing your moments and getting attention.
• Use body language – posture, gestures and eye contact – to project authority and engage.
• Use your voice – pace, pauses, volume and intonation – to make a powerful impression.
• Construct your message for maximum impact.
• Prepare presentations quickly (in a fraction of the time that most people spend).
• Present without relying on a script or wordy PowerPoints.
• Get maximum business development benefit from seminars and conferences.
• Deal confidently with questions (even when you don’t know the answer).

During the programme and beyond you will be given access to tips, templates and other resources as reminders and to help implement points covered in the programme.

At any point, you can optionally request a one-to-one discussion with the trainer Phil Gott.
