The presentation planning phase might sound a bit cumbersome, but proper pre-planning prevents poor performance.

One of the biggest advantages of an external presentation coach & speechwriter is that of a sounding board.
Our colleagues, families, and friends are often too busy to listen or it could be that they do not share the same passion.
They often tend to jump in with advice, which is the number one creator of limiting beliefs and halting the free-flowing of ideas.
The business world is all about showing confidence.
The idea of sharing your fears and limiting beliefs with your colleagues and team members can have catastrophic results.

The average brain makes around 35 000 decisions per day. 95% Of these decisions might be done by your subconscious and unconscious brain, but it all adds up to the underlying stresses and strains of everyday life.
By the end of your presentation coaching session, you will have sorted through everything that is on your mind and have all your ducks back in a row, with a presentation that will knock the socks off your audience and get them to take the action you require.
In Shakespearian literature, the court jester is the only one who could speak truth to power. They shone a light into corners that were typically very dark in an absolute monarchy.

In non-directive presentation coaching, you will get challenged with powerful questions at the right time that will if done right, bring you to an AHA moment that could unlock potential that is more magical than all Shakespeare’s work combined.
