Presentation skills workshops

How often have you been recited to in a formulaic fashion, been tortured with slide upon slide of text or been bored senseless by the poor audience engagement of the presenter? or do you have a fear of public speaking?
How would you like your pitches and presentations to be passionate and evocative, have the audience glued to their seat as they listen intently to your every word, and create a stir amongst your peers; we can give you that through effective sales and Presentation skills training, that will show you how to look, sound and behave your way to success.
As part of his MBA, at Cass Business School London, John Davies, the founding partner, researched why so many presentations failed. The results were shocking with over 80% of business presentations failing at some level, largely due to the formulaic way we are trained . But the good news is that creating great presentations is a skill we can all acquire and one we can master quickly.
Oatmeal training takes a psychologists view of human motivation, addressing the hierarchies of audience needs, examining the three types of presentations that exist, and what Presentation skills training we need to easily structure our business presentation skills for maximum effect. Our sales and Presentation courses are high impact and designed for the corporate marketplace covering:
- fear of public speaking, how to control anxiety, nerves and phobias
- Sales presentation skills training, closure and impactive presentations
- Advanced presentation skills training for company/ project briefings

- Effective negotiation skills training
Being persuasive, speaking with impact, and presenting confidently are all presentation skills that can be quickly acquired within our presentation skill training courses.
