Presentation SKILLS Training

Picture
If you can have a conversation with anyone about a topic at work or at home, then I believe you are able to present. 

​There are simply a number of key presenting principles and self-talk practices, which enable you to overcome possible anxiety and/or improve your existing presentation style. Presenting is a skill, after all, so it takes some guidelines, tips, practice and some mindful observation to get you on track. I offer a safe place to get you there. 

I help teams and individuals in all aspects of giving presentations, tailoring sessions to the audience - the varying sectors, styles, needs and outcomes. I also offer expertise in training or addressing non-native speakers of English. 
“ Ever since Andy trained me, all my nerves have disappeared when presenting. I am talking more clearly and I feel that I can tackle any audience now, I would definitely use him again!” ELIE CAREDERO, Marketing Content Coordinator at RPC bpi group

Testimonials

"Andy gave our senior team a highly practical and enjoyable day’s training in all aspects of giving presentations. He made everyone feel relaxed from the start, and gave fabulous tips and activities to boost confidence and improve practice and delivery techniques."
PHIL OSBORNE
​Business Development Director, Curtins


"We engaged Andy to prepare our team for a major presentation and interview. We ranged greatly in experience and age from old cynics to young enthusiasts, but Andy engaged us all. He made us all feel at ease, but challenged us to think differently. We not only developed new presentation skills, but increased our confidence in presenting as a team.The pitch we ultimately made was greatly enhanced, and we have all continuing applying the skills we gained in subsequent pitches and presentations. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Andy!"
