Confident Communication Online

Duration: 2x half day workshops

Location: Teams / Zoom

Price: £295 per person (plus VAT)

Date: Run on demand

Time: 9am - 1pm

This training is for people who want to be more confident communicating on Zoom, Teams, Google Meet or other video calling platforms.  Read on and find out how we can help you to be a more effective online presenter.

Remember that time you delivered a presentation on Zoom and you were so nervous you needed a stiff drink afterwards? Or when you were asked to do a pitch on Teams and just the thought of it made you nervous? What about when you forgot your content and spent the whole session reading your slides?

If any of these sound familiar, you need to join us for Confident Communication Online.  

What will you get from this workshop?

Delivering pitches, presentations and public speaking is part and parcel of working in marketing and, thanks to the pandemic, we now have to deliver many more presentations online. Get used to the idea and get good at it so you don’t have to worry. That’s what Confident Communication Online is all about.

In two half-day workshops delivered on Teams/Zoom and with up to six attendees only, we will develop your communications skills, building your confidence at delivering presentations, pitches and public speaking online. Whether you are fairly accomplished, or introverted and inexperienced, this course will help you to gain more speaking confidence by developing your natural abilities, helping you engage and entertain your audiences like never before.

By completing these two half-day training courses you will be able to:

  • make a great first impression
  • show confidence and control your nerves
  • write rich, concise material with a story
  • engage an audience and keep their attention
  • communicate authentically
  • use visuals effectively
  • adapt to the unexpected

Format:

The workshops will be held online using Teams/Zoom. They will be interactive throughout and you will be gently pushed out of your comfort zone to learn enhanced speaking techniques through direct experience.

You will need to prepare and bring with you a five minute presentation on any subject you like. This can be in simple note format or with visuals if you wish. You will deliver this 2-3 times during the workshop, building and iterating it into a thing of utter power: impactful, persuasive and easy to deliver.

“I really enjoyed the Confident Communications workshop.  I think I might finally have turned a corner overcoming my total fear of presenting! It felt like a very safe environment to learn and be coaxed along.  I got a real buzz from the last session when I thought that actually, I can do it! I will try and remember that feeling for the next time!”

Lucy Campbell, Head of Events, Christie’s 

We are also running an in-person confident communication workshop, for those who need to stand up in front of a room of people and knock their socks off.
