Communicating with Impact
The last few years has seen a tumultuous business landscape with never a ‘normal’ day.
The Coronavirus Pandemic has emphasised the need for leaders who can really ‘connect’ with an audience.
The way leaders raise their skill to be the best they can be will be vital to ensure any organisation is in the best possible shape for the future.
Communication is often considered a ‘soft’ skill with the misconception that great leaders are born with it. This leads to some people choosing to ‘do what we’ve always done’ rather than grasping the opportunity to grow.
But, it is one of the few skills that have a direct correlation to individual success, organisation success and indeed, the bottom line.
It’s also an area that we can really make a tangible difference for them.
Our coaching covers many areas of business communication including:
- What makes a great presentation and what ruins one?
- Six key principles to ensure success
- Handling audiences through persuasion
- Making preparation easy
- The secret of totally effective and memorable content
- Creating ‘executive presence’ whatever the situation
- Overcoming nerves and keys to confidence
- Defining your own presentation ‘USP’
- Avoiding confusing language –i.e. ‘Techspeak’
- Creating Empathy
- Getting and holding attention
- Insight and understanding of what to expect from different audiences and situations
- The support act dilemma – visuals slides and technical support
- How to adapt to a changing environment
- Powerful body language and vocal tips
- Creating long lasting great habits
- Raising your bar – the benefits to you and your organisation
- Refining your personal ‘style’
- Growing and fulfilling your potential
Our coaching methods are based around a simple premise: make each delegate feel comfortable, confident and in control, to fully develop their own style. When this is established, we introduce further techniques and skills to improve their communication.
Confidentiality and trust has been the key to our success, and any information used during a coaching session will always be in strict secrecy.
