Naomi Deutscher - Training Speakers

People at all levels are required to present information and make recommendations at meetings, client presentations and conferences. This workshop provides the techniques, coaching and practice to develop the skills and confidence to deliver powerful, professional presentations. Feel free to bring a laptop or slide presentation to class. Receive feedback on a part of it or rework it in class to deliver it in a new way.

	Customization Workshop can be customized to address specific topics and needs of the participants.

	Features Videotaped presentations in class with opportunities to improve after each viewing. Time in class to plan, prepare and rehearse before giving a presentation using the techniques learned. Coaching and feedback to build confidence and encourage all levels of presenters to try new skills.

	Results Increased confidence by maximizing strengths and developing more effective habits. Dynamic and enthusiastic delivery by using eye contact, pausing, movement and a stronger voice. Stronger impact of message by organizing content to focus peoples listening.

Your energetic and enthusiastic style together with the direct, and uncouched feedback given during the training creates a burning platform that drives people to respond and change. I personally found your training very refreshing - things are said as they are seen/heard and lessons get etched into my presentation style and behavior rather than just learned and then forgotten.
