1. MEDIA & SPEAKER TRAINING SESSION

Media is such a broad spectrum these days encompassing, not just mainstream publications and programmes, but also webcasts, webinars and events - anywhere you appear in public to share a message about your business. In this half-day session I help you make the most of every opportunity whether it’s on stage, on screen, in print or online.

 

Agenda

  1. Introductions. Make people remember who you are and why you’re worth listening to.

  2. Messaging. Hone, adapt & personalise your message so it feels authentic and not like PR spin.

  3. Hooking, Bridging & Flagging. Hook the journalist or moderator, bridge back to your message & flag the most important one for the audience.

  4. Storytelling. Turn your stats into stories for maximum impact and retention.

  5. Angle Finding. Don’t have a story to tell? Then find an angle, here’s how.

  6. Audience Engagement. Engage the audience with icebreakers and simple, closed questions using whatever mechanisms are available.

  7. Awkward Questions.  Handle those really awkward questions that you can't or don't want to deal with.

  8. And Relax. Finally, I’ll share some techniques to help you handle any nerves that may arise on the day.

2. INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATIONS SESSION​

It is assumed that all human beings have an instinctive understanding of how to communicate with each other but, depending on the context, that's not always true.  In this half-day session participants will learn how to communicate effectively with bosses, colleagues and clients in real life, on email and even via WhatsApp.  This is particularly useful for those working in cross-functional teams or on-boarding recent graduates.​

Agenda

  1. Understanding Your Audience. Empathise with whomever you are talking to, adopt their perspective, assess what they need to know and make it relevant to them.

  2. Picking Your Moments. When to grab their attention, how respect their time and read their cues.

  3. Getting To The Point. Prioritise  information and provide the perfect amount of context.

  4. Soliciting Feedback. Get fast, accurate and actionable feedback from anyone.

  5. Awkward Conversations. Instigate awkward conversations, provide constructive criticism and avoid unnecessary conflict

3. PRESENTATION PREPARATION SESSION

Got a big pitch or presentation coming up? Rehearse with me during this half-day session and let's polish up both the delivery and the slides so you can walk on stage with confidence and deliver with panache.

Agenda

  1. Present. First you present to an audience of one - me!

  2. Assess. I’ll then provide an initial assessment of both your performance and slides.

  3. Amend. We’ll make some amendments together and run it again.

  4. Rehearse. And run it again, and again and again until you feel completely comfortable.

  5. And Relax. Finally, I’ll share some techniques to help you handle any nerves that may arise on the day.

  1. Professional headshot & background image creation

  2. Development of headline and personal value proposition

  3. Reinvigorated ‘About’ section
