What does the coaching involve?

There are two factors that will determine how well your speech or presentation is delivered.

• Confidence
• Technical skills

Of course the two are related. Without the technical skills you won't have the confidence and without confidence your technical skills can fall to pieces. During the coaching we will work on both of these until you reach a point where they are complementing each other.

The actual skill of the delivery is really quite simple -if people can hear you and understand what you mean then the speech is a success. A speech is simply communicating ideas.

Technical skills we will address during the coaching include:

• Vocal Support
• Pitching
• Pace
• Posture
• The power of pauses
• Gesture
• Energy

By using motivational and confidence exercises we will improve the delivery further. These include:

• Circle of excellence
• Anchoring
• Stanislavski's Circles Of Concentration

Each person has their own strengths and weaknesses and we will work to promote your own strengths and eliminate the weaknesses. I would always recommend at least two sessions, as this allows me to tailor the second coaching session to you more effectively.

All of the work that I do is completely confidential. I will never use your name on this website and nobody need ever know that you had coaching on your speech or presentation.
