Coaching Applications - Improve Your Presentations

Improve Your Presentations

Most leaders and executives are called upon to deliver presentations either inside or outside their organisations, often on a regular basis. We provide coaching for presentations and help our clients polish their presentations in a private one-on-one session or in small group (2 to 4 people) settings.

Structure and style make or break a presentation. We work with you to hone the structure of the presentation and enhance your delivery style. With preparation, practice, coaching and constructive feedback from an experienced presenter, our clients have increased confidence, are more relaxed and deliver professional presentations that get results.

Benefits of one-on-one coaching for presentation skills

  • Coaching sessions are short and planned to suit the schedule of the client.
  • The flexibility suits busy people as they can be programmed to occur as they prepare for an important presentation
  • Clients practice in a private, non-threatening environment while they polish their presentation and improve their skills
  • Coaching sessions usually take place on the client's premises and time away from their office is minimised
  • Clients receive constructive feedback from an experienced presenter
  • Their time off the job is used efficiently by concentrating only on the skills and techniques they need for their specific presentation

Structure

While every situation is a little different, we recommend a minimum of three sessions of 1 ½ hours each. This provides opportunity for practicing and fine-tuning presentation style and content.

Case Study

Client: Senior manager of a large manufacturing and sales company.

Background: The client had many years experience in delivering presentations. However he wanted to polish his presentation skills without spending a day or two to attend a public course.

Process: The client delivered a presentation to me just as he would have had there been a full audience. After providing feedback to him, we talked about how he could improve the structure to make it flow better. We also talked about his style and delivery and how to use powerpoint more effectively. In each session, he practiced his presentation as we fine-tuned it and his style.

Outcomes: The client delivered an outstanding presentation to his audience and achieved the desired outcome which he was delighted about. He had more confidence in his delivery and enjoyed the experience much more than he had in the past.
