\n\t\t<\/div> This course will help you develop self-presentation skills and help you sell yourself, whether at work, in a job interview, in a community situation, socially, or indeed any type of situation where you are trying to get your message across.<\/p>\n
It will help you improve your ability to:<\/strong><\/p>\n expand your \u2018comfort zone\u2019<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div> \u2018I really enjoyed the \u201cMaking an Impact!\u201d course. I found the video format elements excellent and I was particularly impressed with the relaxed atmosphere Richard nourished during the day. This created a supportive environment where people felt they could give and receive open and honest feedback and contributed to a positive learning experience for all involved. I would recommend this course to anyone keen to improve their presentation style (or just to watch themselves giving a talk on video for the first time and learn something for the better!).\u2019<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\tRichard Mitchell<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t See yourself (on VIDEO) as others see you<\/strong><\/p>\n Will you like what you see?! You are offered the invaluable opportunity within a supportive and helpful environment to watch yourself on video and learn from what you see, so that you present yourself effectively.<\/p>\n Course method<\/strong><\/p>\n I\u2019ll be giving you information and plenty of advice, plus written materials to take away with you, but this course is not mainly about sitting and listening to me talking to you. This course is more about doing activities, so you can practice being more confident rather than just thinking about it. You will get 1-2-1 coaching from me, with focused feedback about specifiic things you can improve on straightaway. You will the chance to participate in activities such as<\/p>\n The learning environment<\/strong><\/p>\n The four F\u2019s\u2026.<\/p>\n I think that the course has to be a space that offers four indispensable things:<\/p>\n The course is prepared with a lot of attention to specific aspects of presenting and selling yourself, so that the day feels purposeful and targeted. This helps avoid being too general or \u2018woolly\u2019. During the day you will get sympathetic feedback from course members and from me: your strengths and successes will be noticed and welcomed, and you will be given clear indications of areas you may wish to pay attention to, change, or refine. You\u2019ll get more than one chance to do this, as the day progresses.<\/p>\n Neither of the above is useful if the group does not feel friendly, so I pay attention from the first moment of the course to helping group members feel comfortable and accepted, so we can all work well together on areas that may feel like a considerable challenge before you walked through the door. Situations addressed on the course will include:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201dTell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.\u201d\n
