Presenting with Confidence

Empower your team to present with confidence and clarity

Client pitches. Board presentations. Internal briefings. Your team members have important messages to communicate in all sorts of scenarios. And they carry the weight of expectation on their shoulders – often without the skills and training to draw on. Enter Presenting with Confidence: a lively one-day workshop that will transform the way your people present and communicate.

Why presentation skills training?

Your people represent your brand – whether they’re communicating with just one stakeholder or a room of many.

And when they don’t connect with clarity and conviction, your business suffers. Lost opportunities. Weakened relationships. A tarnished brand image. The list goes on.

But by turning your people into confident presenters and communicators, your organisation will:

Engage clients and stakeholders with greater impact
Put your brand in the best possible light
Strengthen and deepen internal and external relationships
Get more pitches and deals over the line

With communication being the top sought-after skill in the workplace (indeed.com, 2023), investing in presentation skills training is an investment in your organisation’s future.

Who is this course for?

Presenting with Confidence is for everyday professionals from all corners of your organisation who need to speak and present to stakeholders. This includes:

Managers and leadership teams
Sales and marketing teams
Admin, support and customer service staff
Technical advisors and consultants

And it’s for diverse learners too; people of all backgrounds and experience. Even your most competent presenters will acquire new skills and renewed confidence in their communication skills.

Quick-fire FAQs

Who will be the facilitator at our workshop?

At CSA, all our facilitators are subject matter experts in their fields.

This course is run by presentation and speaking skills expert, Annelise McCarthy. When she’s not training, she’s coaching corporate professionals and speakers on how to own their message – and the room.

So who would you rather spend your dollars on? A trainer who simply conveys the information? Or an experienced practitioner who lives and breathes it?

What’s the maximum number of participants per workshop?

We cap face-to-face sessions at 15 people. We believe groups any larger than this reduce opportunities for interaction and feedback.

So if you have more people to train than this, please ask us about our special rate for multiple workshops.

What will our team learn?

Please contact us for a full Program Outline. In the meantime, here’s a small taster:

The 3 pillars of confident communication
How to build your personalised blueprint to command every room
How to communicate with impact and charisma
The 6 Ps to owning your voice and speaking with confidence

But let us stress: we will tailor the workshop to your precise needs. So please take the program outline as a guide only.

What is the structure of the sessions?

Workshops are always fun, engaging and interactive.

Although we do lay down some important theoretical foundations at the start, the sessions are hands-on, engaging and activity-based. We encourage lots of dialogue and discussion – and work hard to get everyone involved.

What do we get for our investment?

Your people will receive personalised feedback on their speaking technique during the session.

They will also receive a handy one-page checklist to review before every presentation.

How do you charge?

We charge a fixed fee for groups of up to 15 people, not per head.

That’s why we always encourage our clients to take advantage of all spots for maximum value.

And remember: all workshops are tailored to your needs at no added cost.

Please contact us for a customised quote for your workplace.

Do you offer a credential for this course?

Yes! All your team members will be entitled to a Credly digital badge after they complete this course. At the end of the session, we will send a digital badge to each participant via email. They can then display the badge on their LinkedIn profile and on any other places they wish.
