Presentation Training

Television has influenced the way people expect speeches and even informal talks to be delivered and paced. Audiences now expect business speakers to be interesting and even entertaining. Whether it's a business luncheon, shareholder meeting or a videoconference, public speaking is intimidating even for the seasoned pro.

Media in English provides the preparedness, confidence and peace of mind needed to effectively communicate in English. We train both native and non-native speakers. Executives learn how to define their key messages, to overcome stage fright and maintain their confidence. We teach techniques to assure that the target audience understands the message. Many of these skills are the same ones needed to communicate effectively during videoconference meetings.

Each participant receives personalized coaching and attention from two media and business experienced senior communications consultants. Written evaluations and a videotape of speaking exercises are provided for personal study and review.
