Clients Speak For Themselves"The coaching was focused, intense and challenging; with brutally accurate but constructive feedback. It was exactly what we were looking for. Our work with you has hugely increased the effectiveness of our IFA presentations." "Everybody learned new ideas and techniques which enabled them to deliver a high quality professional performance. It was excellent to observe people visibly grow in confidence." "The work you have done on the structure, focus and delivery of our Fund Manager pitch presentations has been a fantastic success. To have achieved the win rate we have in just 3 months is totally astonishing, and it could not have been done without Straight Talking" "I'd like to thank you for your outstanding contribution at our recent Sales Conference. You provided the absolutely perfect balance of business focus and humour. The feedback I have received from many delegates is that you were the highlight of the day." "Perhaps the highest praise I could give is that I went on a Straight Talking Day and wanted to send my senior team. They went and wanted to send their teams." "I knew what I wanted to say and you engineered the words and the presentational style that achieved maximum impact. I am absolutely certain that I would not have achieved the success I had without your help." "...our presentations were a fantastic success ... we felt the coaching was of great benefit." "Many thanks for your input in turning a team of tongue tied introverts into confident and accomplished presenters. The members of our team who have been subjected to the Straight Talking treatment have improved in confidence to a level where it is difficult to keep them quiet." "You are a great team to work with. Never before have we been able to make such an impact on our audience. You fundamentally transformed what we said and the way that we said it. We look forward to continuing to work with you." "Developing the presentation skills of my team, who are from four countries and for many of whom English is a second language, would be challenging enough for most coaches. But given that they were all competent presenters before, I considered the challenge to be immense. Yet you rose to it and you got a result. On top of this, the work on the message itself was invaluable. We now have the skills to make the very best presentations with material that can have a real impact." "Your style is direct and constructive. You create a foolproof process that just works. Thank you for your expertise and insight. I strongly recommend Serious presenters to work with your organisation." "I would recommend your approach to anyone who understands the importance of getting the message across." "Thank you for your coaching of our senior management team .............. I had been a little apprehensive, but it was very informative, useful and fun." "You really delivered on 2 fronts. Firstly, a clear and easy-to-use preparation technique that helps me clarify the message and structure the supporting content around it, whatever the nature of the presentation. Secondly, ready-to-use, hard-hitting guidance on personal delivery style." "You have without doubt improved my presentation style and enabled me to put across my role more effectively. Your coaching has also helped me deliver my business presentations with far more punch and confidence." "I approached you because I wanted to introduce the same sort of professionalism to my speaking that I have always had in my riding. By using your techniques I can now prepare and perform every speech as if it were the Grand National ." "..... professional, diligent and creative. I found their training methods to be invaluable. " "Your coaching has shown me how to home in on the real essentials. As a result, all my speeches are shorter, punchier and more powerful." "Thank you very much for your expert coaching. I found the coaching extremely useful and use the techniques whenever I do a presentation" "Yet again, your advice and expertise has saved me from a presentational nightmare. Thank you for providing such insight and inspiration at such short notice." "I cannot thank you both enough for what you have helped me achieve. ........... I cannot remember ever sensing such tangible audience reaction to a pitch ......... I guess if you can get it to work on me you must really be magicians." "Each of the participants are particularly appreciative of the skill with which you were able to help them identify issues, address individual needs and instil confidence." "Working with you on the fundamental issues in our business helped us to clarify enormously the messages that we must convey." "In a very limited timeframe, you made a hugely positive impact on the content of the speech and the way I delivered it. The integrity of my message was actually enhanced by the way you focused and sharpened it to suit my audience." "As part of my job I present a lot to many different types of clients, and so I looked to the presentation skills course to help me develop the most effective presentation approach for my style. The course and the content was spot on, as it was not prescriptive to a single presentation formula; rather it focused on developing each person's strengths, which I feel has allowed me to use the training in a practical sense." |
