Effective Speaking

Business Presentations

Introduction


The Training Corporation in association with Jennings and Associates present an Effective Speaking programme for people in all industries who communicate regularly with others, for instance in the form of meetings, presentations, interviews, sales  calls, or conveying corporate policy to the public.  An intensive two-day learning experience, it arose from the awareness of a serious need for communication skills in companies.  Being able to communicate properly ensures that as a company, or group, you will be heard in the market place.

 It is a known fact that 87% of people fear public speaking more than death.  Yet, a natural speaking style is your most powerful communications tool, and the Effective Speaking programme provides you with the necessary assurance and method to enable you to organise concepts for a presentation – even at short notice.

 Class size is limited to ten participants, to ensure maximum individual attention.  Private counselling is also utilised in order for you to discover and cultivate your own natural speaking style.

Features

Effective Speaking is a highly participatory, enjoyable and fun course.  It incorporates a  combination of features found in no other communications training programme: 

  • Four to six video tape presentations by each participant
  • Private coaching sessions
  • Training on how to establish and sustain effective eye communication
  • Mastering the use of gestures, posture and movement to make a smoother, more confident presentation.
  • Eliminating the use of empty filler sounds (the “errs” and “umms” from communication efforts.)
  • Making dress and appearance a harmonious part of a total communications impact.
  • Incorporating humour appropriately, with confidence
  • Using the Grid System, a tool to help organise concepts for presentations, even at short notice
  • Impromptu speaking.
  • The correct use of visual aids, i.e. slides, overhead projectors, laptops, etc.
  • Handling of questions and answers.

 

This intensive, interactive programme will give you the skills you need to make an impact on any audience, whether that audience is one person or one thousand.

A DVD cassette of your progress is provided. Courses are presented on a National basis.
