Everyone has a right to speak and that includes you. Clear, concise communication is important, and we will help you to get your message across, whether that be in a work environment or in a personal capacity.
Most people are not natural communicators or born public speakers. Many people are self-conscious, fearful, and nervous about speaking in public. The "little voice" in their head is constantly over-thinking: "What will he, she, they think of me? What if I go blank and forget what I am saying? What happens if I make a mistake?"
Being able to communicate authentically and effectively changes the way people see you and your business and helps you to achieve your goals both professionally and personally.
Think about your own situation. How do you feel when you are asked – or told – to speak in public? Quite likely your initial reaction is fearful, scared, sweaty palms, a dry throat, even heart palpitations, and in extreme cases you may even feel short of breath, become dizzy or go into a full-blown panic attack.
You are not alone. This happens to over 75% of people who have a built-in fear (or phobia) of standing up in front of other people to deliver a speech, present or pitch an idea, or when attending that all-important job interview. It’s a natural reaction, but it doesn’t have to be that way.
Our
One-Day Public Speaking Course is designed to help you deal with your fear and will teach you how to stand up with confidence and speak from a position of genuine, ease and poise. Our techniques are simple, effective, and extremely powerful and have worked for thousands of people just like you.
The course is designed to help you escape from the prison of your own mind – from your constant over-thinking and fearful disposition; for you to be able to enjoy the benefits of communicating concisely, fluently, passionately and, most importantly, to get your message across in the best-possible way.
The skills you will learn go far beyond public speaking. You will be able to use the tools to help you deal with many of life’s challenges. They will give you an inner confidence that you may not have had before and allow you to be yourself – whoever that turns out to be.
That free-floating fear you feel is nothing more than a bully and is likely holding you back from your full potential. Once confronted, it will melt away leaving you free to enjoy the life, the success, and the peace of mind you deserve.
The incessant and always-present "little voice" of fear will tell you that people will laugh at you, that you're not good enough, that you're not worthy enough, that you don’t deserve to be there, that you are an imposter and will be found out, that your speech will be a disaster and that you will be fully exposed for what you truly are – a fraud!
It will tell you that you cannot cope, that you have not prepared enough, that you don't know what you're talking about and that nobody is interested in what you have to say anyway. Fear tells you that both you and your topic are boring and not worth listening to. As a result, fear holds you back, blocks your path to success and prevents you achieving your goals in both your career and in life generally.
The good news is that there is a solution. This
One-Day Public Speaking Course will help you break through the fear and will allow you to stand up and be heard.
We have worked with people from most professions, backgrounds and from all over the world. From graduates just starting out in their careers to CEOs, business owners and entrepreneurs; from doctors, lawyers, teachers, accountants, to politicians – known and unknown – as well as psychiatrists, psychotherapists, and counsellors. We have also worked with dozens of well-known companies and organisations including BT, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Unilever, Pulsant, HSBC, University of Law (London), HM Government, JP Morgan, British Red Cross, Citibank, KPMG, Microsoft, and many more.
By the end of our
One-Day Public Speaking Course you will have both the skills and the confidence to stand up in front of any number of people and speak. And that also includes being able to present on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype and other online platforms.
So, whoever you are and whatever you do, if you have a fear of standing up and speaking in front of people, now is the time to finally deal with it – not tomorrow – now.

"This is a wonderful course and such value for money. It covers practical tools and techniques but it also deals with the deeper problem - our unconscious resistance that creates the fear of speaking freely, whether public speaking or just showing up authentically in our day-to-day life. The course material is a perfect balance between challenging and fun."
"John's presentation day I couldn't recommend enough. It has helped me to stay calm before presenting and confident when presenting. Previous to this course I would have avoided presenting, not anymore, through John I have learned skills on how to face my fear."
"The course hit the right note for me, and connected in a way that I really think could be a turning point. I wasn't completely new to some of the principles of speaking, but the biggest take home for me was dealing with the root cause of anxiety."

"A very insightful and unique course that not only developed my ability to speak in public but also strengthened my debating skills and taught me the importance of loving myself and not caring what others think. I would recommend this course to anyone aiming to develop their confidence and aiming to master the art of public speaking."
"It all went amazingly in the end, thank you so much for your help. I found it very useful, not only in making me more confident but also in learning new techniques to help me cope with the anxiety public speaking can bring on."
"At the start of the day I felt very out of my comfort zone, but John put us all at ease straight away. Throughout the course he not only helped me with tips/tools to overcome my nerves when it came to speaking in larger groups but I also learnt a lot about myself and by the end of the day my confidence was through the roof!
I can't thank John enough!"
