Let us tell you a story…

We once worked with a big global corporate company and the CEO would get into the lift with an employee and say “What’s the point of you?” Very challenging for the most confident person. Could you do it? What would you say?

Imagine feeling ready to answer that question with clarity, confidence and courage. We are going to take you on that journey and by the end of Week 3 you be will able to hold your own with the best of them.

It’s not just about presentations or public speaking…it’s about how you communicate internally and externally, how you are perceived by clients and colleagues.

And here’s the real bonus…
You get two experienced coaches for the price of one.

What’s in it for me?

Ask yourself these questions:

  • Do you find it hard to sell yourself?

  • Are you feeling overlooked? Undervalued?

  • Are great at you job but not so great at telling people that?

  • Are you struggling with the pressure?

  • Do you feel intimidated in male dominated environments?

  • Do you work in an organisation with little diversity & inclusion?

  • Are you an introvert? Are you shy?

  • Do you know you need some help but find online learning a challenge?

If the answer to even one of these questions is yes - you need this workshop

What is stopping you?

“I haven’t got time”

“What if I’m put on the spot?”

“Everyone else will be better/more senior/less senior/older/younger than me.”

We promise you we will create a safe space to explore your workplace challenges and learn in a supportive environment at your own pace.

Limited spaces
As we offer individual coaching and feedback there are only 20 spaces available... so what are you waiting for?

How it works:

  • Week 1: Clarity

    Often when we feel challenged, we focus on what to say, not how to say it.

    In the first module we will explore what stops you being clear. We will offer some ideas on storytelling - how to structure you message and make it compelling and original.

    We will teach you how to slow down and speak at an appropriate pace.


    Result:

    •   Learn how to talk about yourself and your work

    •   Get your message across clearly

    •   Feel ready to sell yourself

  • Week 2: Confidence & Courage

    This session is specifically designed to look how and why we get nervous and what to do about it. We explore the importance of body language, vocal & emotional energy. We will teach you practical exercises on voice, physicality and breath. We will also explore mindset and think about ways to reframe the negative thinking that can hold you back.

    Once we have learnt some tips and strategies to manage your nerves, we get to the crux of the matter - how to be assertive. We will share some theory around influencing skills and share some practical exercises to bring that theory to life.

    Result:

    •   Feel ready to face any challenging conversation

    •   Learn how to take the attention off yourself and put it on your audience

    •   Understand the difference between assertion and aggression

    •   Be prepared to face the situations you avoid

  • Week 3: Putting it all together

    We will work in two groups and really explore your individual issues. You can bring any situation you find challenging and you will receive 1: 1 coaching to help you to a better outcome. We will set up a buddy system to continue the group support that we have created.


    Result:

    •   You will feel more confident to face the music and dance

    •   Go out and conquer the world

    •   Get that promotion

    •   Have that challenging conversation

    •   Deliver an inspiring presentation

You will learn to:

• Have gravitas

• Improve your vocal energy

• Relax your body

• Use your breath to manage your nerves

• Create a positive mindset

• Articulate your message

• Get yourself seen & heard

• Speak up in meetings

• Use different influencing techniques

• Assert yourself

• Ask great questions

• Listen well

• Develop better relationships with colleagues & clients

All this adds up to Clarity, Confidence & Courage
