Public Speaking Coaching Melbourne
In today's fast-moving world many people are seeking immediate answers to the demands on their communicating effectiveness - especially when speaking before groups. And this affects everyone, no matter what field you happen to be in or your station in life. Make no mistake, the right public speaking coaching, tailored specifically to your needs, can play a vital role in your success and the influence you have on others.
The good news is my public speaking coaching here in Melbourne, or anywhere in Australia, is not a long drawn out operation where we've got to see you again and again. This tried-and-proven coaching session has evolved over many years into one, 4-hour inspirational experience where you'll learn to think and communicate effectively on your own two feet - in an ongoing and permanent way.
When Allen Williams, Managing Director of Australia's most respected air conditioning and mechanical services company, James L. Williams, phoned me, he was extremely concerned with a presentation he had to give at a conference before a group of scientists in Canberra. He confessed that he'd always been terrified of speaking before groups and had never felt comfortable. Here, in his own words is what Allen said three months after our half-day coaching session:
It's been three months since I took your half-day, one-on-one course and I would like to report that IT WORKS! Before making your acquaintance I found it very difficult to prepare for and execute a talk to a large audience. It seemed that no matter how detailed my speech I always felt that I was boring them to death. Knocking knees, dry throat and losing the place in my carefully prepared text exacerbated this. Since you showed me the light, I've had a number of opportunities to talk with large, medium and small gatherings and I just love having them in the palm of my hand. The easy conversational communication, which you showed me, attracts listeners and holds them. Once again many thanks for your contribution; it's certainly made my life easier and more rewarding. |
And likewise with Jean. She was so dominated by the fear of public speaking that the mere thought of attending a public speaking course terrified her. When I suggested a non-threatening one-on-one coaching session to rid herself of this debilitating fear she felt a lot better. At session's end Jean had become the confident person she had always wanted to be and now believed she could do it. What's more she's since proven to herself that this dramatic change was real and permanent and not just a warm and fuzzy one-day wonder. Here's how she puts it:
Many thanks Laurie for curing my crippling fear of speaking to an audience. Since completing your half-day coaching course I have had to present many times and although initially nervous, I speak comfortably and confidently. I am no longer afraid. I can walk to the front of an audience without feeling weak with fear, which is extremely liberating. My husband has noticed the difference; he has said to me on numerous occasions that he can see that I now enjoy public speaking. And my university marks have reflected my new ability to express myself well - thanks to you. Laurie, your job is a noble one. You have helped me enormously and I love your work. |
Ongoing Help
And help doesn’t stop at the end of this exciting learning experience for I’m only an email away whenever you need me. Nerelie Teese sums this up nicely:
Hi Laurie Thanks for your great tips, and your support and encouragement. When my principal welcomed everyone, he announced that I'd been invited to present a professional practice paper at the IASL annual conference in Jamaica in August. He indicated to me earlier that our school will promote this in our local community and that I'll be featured in the Melbourne Weekly. Of course I'll be consulting you about my Jamaica presentation which is "Introducing and Establishing a Wide Reading Program in the Middle Years of Schooling" - which is much more interesting and exciting than it looks! Again, my sincere thanks for all you've done in encouraging me to go for these fantastic experiences. It's such fun. Cheers Nerelie Teese |
