We are delighted to announce our new look site with free access to tips and advanced content designed to help you develop your presentation skills.
In addition to our fundamentals course we have also made available advanced modules, thirteen in total looking at individual aspects of public speaking techniques such as voice control, illustrating our ideas, introductions and conclusions.
One of the key ideas developed is covered in the module ‘Layers of communication’, which stresses the importance of presenting a unified message across the various elements of communication.
We are confident this service will be of real benefit to anyone seeking to develop his or her presentation skills. We are also incorporating sponsorship opportunities that will be of great benefit for brand building.

Hiding behind PowerPoint
When it comes to presentation skills much thought is given to ‘the slides’ that will form the presentation. Fair enough but beware!
PowerPoint and similar programs are only part of the story. Too often the content of the visual element is concentrated on to the detriment of the spoken presentation. Often this results from a belief that the visual element has more impact on an audience and that somehow presenting a dull message in bullet points creates an interesting message.
To be truly successful the presentation must contain powerful elements across the spectrum of communication. Visual elements will go well beyond a few slides (or most likely a lot of them) and will include facial expression, gestures, body language and especially eye contact. See Layers of communication at skillpresentations.com.
Learn how to stand out in front of the screen, communicate directly with your audience and ‘dare to press B’.
