I&#8217;ve already been integrating many of the tactics into my presentations and can see and hear the difference in how I come across to my audience&#8221;<\/em>&nbsp;&#8230; Kristin Hunt, FirstAm<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Why should you book your presentation skills\/public speaking training with us rather than one of the dozens of other companies that are on the web providing presentation skills training? Here are SIX good reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>My approach is different.&nbsp;<\/strong>I teach&nbsp;<strong>Whole-Brain Presenting\u2122<\/strong>. Many presenters have a solid, well-prepared, businesslike message to deliver but fail to connect with the audience&nbsp;<strong>because their delivery is dry, predictable and boring<\/strong>. Others are exciting, interesting and motivational but you can\u2019t remember a thing they said ten minutes after they sat down.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Both types make the mistake of speaking\/presenting in a way that engages only half of their audience\u2019s brains &#8211; either the left side (i.e. in a logical, factual, structured manner) or the right (in a creative, emotional way). The result is a presentation or speech that unsurprisingly often fails to achieve its objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&nbsp;<strong>engages both sides of the brain&nbsp;<\/strong>by creating a&nbsp;<strong>blend of the best aspects of both styles.<\/strong>&nbsp;It\u2019s logical, structured, organised and methodical while also being creative, exciting, emotional and memorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>I&#8217;m not a performing arts &#8216;luvvie&#8217;<\/strong>&nbsp;who wants to help you get in touch with your inner child to help you express your emotions &#8211;&nbsp;<strong>I&#8217;m a professional speaker.&nbsp;<\/strong>I&#8217;ve even been called&nbsp;<strong>&#8216;The speakers&#8217; speaker.<\/strong>&#8216;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I&#8217;m not a former actor full of theory about how drama skills can be applied to the business world &#8211;&nbsp;<strong>I spent 15 years in sales and marketing with big, blue-chip companies&nbsp;<\/strong>in a variety of roles, from salesman to Sales &amp; Marketing VP.

I&#8217;ve walked the walk.&nbsp;<strong>I&#8217;ve done it for real. I&#8217;ve spoken to over 100,000 people<\/strong>&nbsp;over four continents in the&nbsp;<strong>last five years<\/strong>&nbsp;alone, (the largest audience was almost 5,000, the smallest was 12).
