A Private approach

e-learning Presentation skills

Engage your audience with Impact

This is for anyone who would like to take a more individual and flexible approach in developing their presentation skills.

Why Engage?

This allows you to work at your own pace through interactive video tutorials and have your learning reinforced with two individual online coaching sessions with the tutor.  Individual needs. Unique approach to presenting and unique situations in which to present.

  • It’s a safe environment where you can experiment with different behavioural techniques without fear of failure in front of others.
  • Share personal information about your development and work at a deep level in developing yourself to make the training fit your needs. 
  • Practice the techniques at your own pace, review them and repeat before submitting your work for evaluation. 
  • Build your confidence and comfort with using the skills before entering the public arena of speeches and presentations.
  • Flexibly adapt the training to fit the demands of your time and your expectations.

but

  • E-learning can be passive and not give you the chance to be well-drilled and practised in your techniques.
  • Alone it’s easy to misunderstand and waste time making simple mistakes.
  • It’s easy to prevaricate and put off the next session. 
  • E-learning can be very generic with long tutorials that are difficult to follow. 

interact and contribute

in the moment

Interaction is at the core of our Engage programme. In nearly every video you are asked to interact and contribute in the moment. Making it easier for you to practise as there is no time for deliberation.  The coaching sessions are pre-scheduled at the beginning of the training, so you are working toward a time goal.

  • The training is exciting and experiential, so fosters a desire to both practise what you have learnt and progress on to the next tutorial.
  • The gap between the two coaching sessions allows for personally tailored coaching, preparing you for your bespoke presentation situations.

  • You can take your own time to understand the more complex areas of presenting such as how to structure and shape your material for maximum audience engagement. Try out different storytelling techniques to see which ones give you the best options. 
  • Feel safe sharing challenges you face and get personally targeted feedback and techniques that will work for you to create the impact you want to create when presenting.
