Do you have the time and money to invest in your personal growth?
Do you have the appetite?
Have you already tried to change on your own?

Now imagine having someone to partner with, to stand by you through your evolution.

PRESENTING LIKE A PRO

Does the suggestion of talking to a room full of people make you want to cut off your own arm or is it something you can do but don’t enjoy?

Either way, neither of those associations make for successful presenting experiences.

Come and join us in this workshop where we will help you find your happy place in front of an audience.

You will learn:

Own your space
Engage with your audience from the off
Make the ‘stuff’ you say ear grabbing and sticky
Understand how your mind, body and voice all need to work together and how to do it
Deal with tricky Q & A’s

During the workshop, we will *film you for the simple reason that watching ourselves is powerful.

*How we feel inside often doesn’t translate to what the world sees and together we will make that progression.

You will be given copies of all filming taken.

TOUGH CONVERSATIONS

We all hold painful memories of horrible conversations or confrontations. Some of the most anxiety ridden examples involve finding ourselves put on the spot or having to give and receive complaints. But honestly, most situations are a conversation away from improving.

In this clinic you will learn the art of crafting successful dialogue, so that in future you actively seek to use these skills as opposed to exercising your powers of avoidance.

You will learn:

The necessary elements of a valuable conversation
Strategies for coping with a variety of responses and openers.
To rehearse (generally nobody does). The beauty and benefits of this iterative process to identify what will be better following this conversation and have an outcome

** We will be using personal case studies - you will all need homegrown situations to practise.

Supporting you to be more... a case study

Thomaz worked in television production. Over twenty five years, he had moved through the ranks working on a host of high profile programmes and alongside many acting and directing household names. When he came to me he was nearing the end of an international collaboration but had nothing in the pipeline beyond that point.

In addition to sourcing new projects he was looking to create some major changes in his work set up. Whilst still enjoying many aspects of production, he felt the regular travel, long hours and contractual nature was becoming less compatible with his other interests and family life. Thomaz's two major blocks moving forward were connected with recognising and accepting what he had contributed to his success in the past, so that he was able to clarify what he wanted to do in the future.

Together we explored what was really important to him and what was driving certain behaviours. From this he began to understand the elements of his leadership that were working and their correlation to running a successful team. Previously, he had been blind to the contribution he was making to a culture which allowed individuals and therefore the organisation to thrive. His approach and style had been a large part of that contribution. Knowing he possessed these traits and skills meant that not only were they replicable but he understood their value to other organisations.

Shortly after ending our sessions together he took on the role of Executive Producer for a multi-disciplinary Arts Centre and is Senior Consultant to a number of Large Entertainment Organisations.

HEAR FROM CLIENTS

I wholeheartedly endorse Suzanne's excellent work as an Executive Professional Coach. As a school leader and school governor of some long standing, I am mindful of the critical importance of maintaining a reflective attitude to the roles I occupy, so as to keep my thinking around school leadership and development fresh and relevant.

Suzanne's highly empathetic approach, combined with appropriate degrees of challenge, have motivated me in significant ways. I was able to consider my roles from both personal and professional angles in ways that I had not alighted upon on my own. I am an improved school leader as a consequence. I cannot recommend Suzanne highly enough.
