What?
Training Course Overview
Do you want to significantly increase your impact and influence when presenting? Plus, persuade people of what you want?
A good or bad presentation can be the difference between business won and business lost. This Presentation Skills training course understands that a presentation might just be two people at a table, but that the presentation has to get the message across well and achieve its objectives too.
The course will be delivered by a world-class tutor. In addition, like all of our training courses, it includes our ROI guarantee. This training course will change the way Learners deliver impactful presentations, whether they are internal or external. It will help Learners to develop their knowledge and understanding of how to convey key messages, fully engage an audience, and deliver the maximum influence.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this Presentation Skills training course, the Learner will be able to:
- Prepare thoroughly for a presentation using our unique 7-point Successful Presenting ® template.
- Perform much more confidently when presenting.
- Engage the audience more by using fewer words whilst using a stronger message.
- Recognise when presenting with real influence, when they are not, and why.
- Use tools and techniques to increase the strength of their presentations.
- Assess whether the audience is engaged and what to do if they are not.
5-Star Reviews for Presentation Skills Training
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Carima Sherlock, Innovation Development Manager, A.G. Barr plc.
“I just wanted to thank you for the course and the learnings. Strange but good things happened as a result! After watching the video, I got home and practised my presentation all night, remembering to slow down, pause and breath. The next day, I gave my presentation twice and got great feedback. So much so, our Head of Sales who I had presented to asked if I could present the same thing again at the Sales Conference to 130 people on Wednesday. I couldn’t quite believe it and to say I was a bit overwhelmed would be an understatement… I have had the best feedback and still on a high really. Just wanted to send a quick thanks to you, the course could not have come at a better time for me!”

“Just wanted to drop you a note to say how much the team & I are enjoying the Presentation Skills workshops. We are all at slightly different levels of experience when it comes to creating & delivering presentations, but the content is universal & tackles our individual learning needs. It’s also nice to have a course which reflects the reality of doing business in 2024! We don’t often have the luxury of being face to face, so coaching to make sure we have impact virtually is really valuable for the team.”
Why?
Our memory weakens over time. 85% of what learners learn in a training course is forgotten within the first 30 days.
Most people attend training courses and have a great day. The problem is that they do nothing differently afterwards. A person invests 8 hours of their time, a company invests money in that person, and the result is, well, nothing. No behavioural change for the learners. Learning that sticks changes that.
Read more about Sticky Learning, and how we incorporate this into every training course we do on our About Sticky Learning page.
How?
The best piece of learning we all did was to drive. This is because driving lessons are based on spaced repetition. Do a lesson, stop & reflect, do another lesson, and so on. Our training programme is based on blended learning/70:20:10. A combination of traditional face-to-face training days, plus virtual classrooms, one-to-one coaching and Sticky Pieces (Homework) to embed the learning. All aimed to change the behaviours of the Learners.
Course Point of Difference
Achieving Real Behavioural Change with ‘Sticky Learning ®’
Sticky Learning ® is our own unique learning method. Developed over the last 20+ years. Most Learners attend 1-day training courses and do nothing afterwards. HR Managers & L&D Managers told us that this was unacceptable.
Sticky Learning ® helps Learners to Realise more of what they have learnt. To help them to Recall more of what they have learnt. Plus, Retain more of what they have learnt. The 3 R’s.
Sticky Learning ® enables us to proudly guarantee that if a Learner is not still using their new skill 5 months later, we will give you your money back. This is our money-back guarantee.
