Confident Presentation Skills Training

"The course has helped me find my confidence and I now feel almost excited to do presentations (which is a big step!!). Thanks to Tom’s stories and watching him ‘practice what he preached’ throughout the day, I now believe I will remember the many subtle elements of presenting which previously I would instantly forget when the stage fright kicked in. I will be recommending to my Learning and Development manager and I would attend a course by this trainer again. " - 15-10-2014 12:45

"Excellent course. Tom is very knowledgeable about the subject. He has a wide range of life experiences to illustrate points he wants to make. The whole course went well. I found it was very informal as there was only another attendee there, which made a more relaxed atmosphere during the day. The course pointed me in the right direction with regards to doing presentations. I certainly benefited from doing the course. Tom was a very easy going and amiable trainer. I would recommend the course and further courses delivered by Tom." - 13-10-2014 15:27

"This session delivered by Tom has to be one of the most enjoyable and productive training session’s I have personally ever attended. Tom managed to grab the attention of everyone in the group from the first minute to the very last. It was perfectly pitched for our team, from admin to senior managers and thoroughly enjoyed by all. I feel that not only has the team gained an awful lot of knowledge and practical tips around presenting but it has enhanced our working relationship with some great team bonding. I would sincerely endorse Tom’s training for any organisation, no matter how big or small, and whether they are looking to train the most junior novice and nervous presenter right through to squeezing that extra bit out of even the most time-served public speaker." - 13-10-2014 07:56
