Speaker and presenter training:

Focus on authenticity

Speaker and Facilitator Training: Focus on authenticity
“A good speech can change the world.”, says Cristian Gálvez in his “7 Minutes” presentation on public speaking. Because accurately chosen words and clear messages not only inform but also inspire and move people. And quite literally captivate them.

The key? Focus on authenticity. With the right mixture of facts and passion, conviction and feeling, a message will remain in people’s heads. Contents must be created in such a way that they are heard, felt and understood. This leaves an impression – and resonates. The difference between target groups and the context of the occasion are of paramount importance. A presentation for a board of directors requires a different kind of language than a motivating talk in front of a large audience or the facilitation of a conference.

To do this we not only focus on having a good story and a central idea but on selecting the appropriate rhetoric and the perfect dramatic structure. Through this methodical approach, we guarantee that the audience will listen to every word you say and that your speech, presentation or facilitation is successful.

We will support you in presenting the best version of yourself and in realizing your full potential. With our speaker and facilitator coaching. So that you can get your messages across as impressively and effectively as possible.

Our Coaching Process

01

Analysis and Objectives

The first step is always a collaborative analysis. We look at the given situation and your duties and we define clear objectives and corresponding messages. What should be the impact of your moderation? Who is your audience? We ensure that your training is precisely tailored to meet your needs and the requirements of the event.

02

Core Messages and Storytelling

A successful speech or moderation depends entirely on a clear core message or a central idea. We will develop central statements together with you and complement these with compelling sub-messages. Through storytelling techniques, we ensure that your contents will not only become firmly rooted in the heads but also in the hearts of your audience.

03

Presentation Techniques

We will work on the details together with you. Body language, voice, facial expressions and gestures – all these elements contribute to your powerful and confident presence. Regardless of whether you are a speaker, a facilitator or a co-facilitator. We will support you in giving an authentic and convincing presentation and in being able to react spontaneously to your audience. So that your message is not only heard but also experienced.

04

Practical Phase

The final step: Practice makes perfect. You can practice your moderation of an event or your presentation in front of an audience in a realistic situation. You will receive direct feedback and practical tips that bring you into your personal comfort zone and that can be immediately applied. So that you are ideally prepared and able to present or moderate easily and confidently, regardless of the size of the audience or the format of the event.

Frequently asked questions about coaching

Answers to the most important questions about the objectives, process, methods and impact of professional coaching.

Our coaching offers personalised preparation for important and high-profile appearances – from C-level keynotes and speaker coaching to event hosting. Authentic, approachable, and professional.

For board members, executives, speakers and presenters – in other words, for anyone who needs to speak with conviction and clarity at crucial moments: in front of staff, customers, investors or the media.

Ahead of high-stakes appearances and in challenging communication situations: keynote speeches, investor conferences, annual general meetings, financial results press conferences, staff town halls, roadshows, media interviews, TV appearances and panel discussions.
Coaching is also a key factor for success when new executives are taking up their posts, during M&A processes, ahead of international appearances or in crisis situations – as well as in the long-term development of a confident public speaking style.

It starts with clarifying objectives and content, followed by structured sessions involving feedback, practice and fine-tuning. Until the message, delivery and impact are just right.

A public speaking course provides general knowledge about language, voice and body language – usually in group settings and without reference to a specific occasion. Coaching at what when why is one-to-one speaker coaching: it prepares a specific individual for a specific presentation – focusing on their message, their voice, their role and the impact they aim to make. This naturally includes language, voice and body language.

Clarity of message, storytelling and dramatic structure, tone of voice and body language, demeanour and leadership presence, confident stage presence, managing stage fright, confidence in Q&A sessions and crisis communication, as well as a compelling performance in front of the camera or a live audience.

Coaching is rarely an ad hoc process. For a single speech or keynote address, at least two sessions are advisable – supplemented by preparatory work on the text. This always requires thorough preparation of both the text and the speaker. Moderator coaching usually comprises four to six sessions and general text work by the coachees. Long-term coaching helps to make an immediate impact at every event – and is often the most cost-effective solution for executives who are regularly in the public eye.

Structured discussion formats, video feedback, script work and stage rehearsals, voice and physical training, as well as full-scale rehearsals under real-life conditions.

Because the impact of a key presentation often determines how you are perceived, the level of trust you inspire, the acceptance of your strategies, and your business success. Coaching is an investment with high leverage – the effort required is relatively small compared to the added value it delivers.

Yes, but by no means exclusively. Online elements are an essential part of our coaching – we combine online and live formats specifically to suit the training objective. Theoretical and preparatory phases can be handled very effectively online. Real rehearsals, on the other hand, always take place live – because every performance is live, whether in front of a camera, a streaming audience or on stage. Impact, presence and the handling of space, audience and technology only truly come into their own under real-life conditions.

Often after just the first session – clarity regarding your message and presentation emerges quickly. Your voice, posture and confidence become more assured over the course of several sessions.

Speaker coaching, keynote coaching, presenter coaching, presentation coaching, stage coaching, media coaching, and coaching for on-camera and streaming appearances.
