Presentation Coaching: remote or in-person

Do you have a big presentation coming up?
You have a high-stakes presentation coming up. You need to impress an audience of important stakeholders, and you’re not feeling prepared?
With such a big event looming, you may doubt your story, the structure of your presentation. You may feel insecure in your delivery, in your voice, or body language. You could feel overwhelmed by the fear and friction of speaking in public.
Public speaking coaches like me are here to help transform your insecurities into your strengths. I am here to make your next presentation a massive success.
Speak with confidence and with your own unique style on any occasion to any audience.
Presentation Coaching is an effective, short-term, personalized solution for your public speaking and presentation skills needs. Presentation Coaching can be a planned activity, but also a last-minute intervention.
Everyone deserves to speak and present effectively, to be understood clearly, to come across as inspiring. Bringing people together, motivating them to follow you, and moving them to action are core competencies in any line of work, at any level.
Do you want to speak with confidence, power, and ease?
Some presenters seem to be able to charm any room naturally. Their presence is charismatic, their gestures are harmonious, their voice is soothing, and their gaze is mesmerizing.
These aren’t innate abilities but instead learned and trained skills. Everyone can charm the room. You deserve to speak with great confidence: speaking in public should not be an obstacle on the way to your goals. You should also express the whole gamut of your power and personality while on stage and do it while feeling calm, at ease.
I want to show you how.
It's never too late to save your peers from a bad presentation.
Presentation Coaching develops the most important skills of masterful presenting:
Presentation Structure
Presentation Design
The visuals
Presentation Delivery
The human element
Audience Interaction
The relationship
Coaching can happen in person anywhere in Europe or worldwide, via Skype/Hangouts.
Public speaking coaching for talks, presentations, and speeches
Speaking in public can take many forms. You might need to persuade 2 board members with a technical presentation. You may need to convince a team of 10 to follow your lead with a speech. You might need to inspire a group of 100 with a keynote. Or even move thousands of people to action by creating an online video or a TED-style presentation.
We will define the goals for each presentation and audience, refine the proper format, and understand what delivery style will lead to the best outcomes.

Is presentation coaching going to help me reach individual my goals?
You’re in the right place if you feel it’s time to:
- Forget about anxiety and fear of public speaking;

How does individual presentation coaching work?
There are six steps to a successful public speaking coaching engagement:
- An initial call to best understand your goals;
- A survey that helps the coach best assess your current level, strengths, and weak spots, and needs;
- A customized proposal with a clear path and recognition of your specific goals;
- A pre-training call to define expectations and logistical details;
- The coaching and training meetings;
- A review of the work done through specific feedback tools.

Why Berlin
I founded my coaching and consulting activity in Berlin in 2011 because I was looking for a forward-thinking, international, English-speaking environment capable of thinking outside of the box. I love Berlin for its complicated history, its rich diversity, and its openness to new stimuli.
