Private Coaching
Improve your communication skills

Do you have an important presentation coming up that you would like to make just a little more dynamic? Are you terrified because you must give a speech for the first time? No matter what your level of experience, Sally Chopping can make a difference. She will assess your strengths and weaknesses and show you how to become an effective and powerful  communicator. Her coaching sessions are tailored to your specific needs. She will address your immediate problems and find solutions that capitalize on your natural speaking style.

Here are some examples of specific problems that Sally Chopping can help you solve:

• After giving a speech, you have a question and answer session in which you don't want to be blindsided. We will rehearse how you respond to difficult questions, make sure that you have prepared for every area of questioning, and that you can maintain your confidence and control of the audience. The question and answer session is an opportunity to interact with your audience in a dynamic and personal way. Many communicators give a great speech and then ruin it all by handling the question and answer session badly. Make sure that your response to questions is immediate and effective. Learn techniques that will insure your success.
   
• You must give a long presentation that lasts for several hours. You feel great at the beginning but half way through your voice feels strained and you can't maintain your energy level. A great presentation must be great all the way through! Learn how to maintain the audience's interest and keep your enthusiasm. We will examine your presentation techniques, your vocal ability and the organization of your material. Find out how to become a dynamic speaker with staying power. 
   
• You have just been promoted and your new responsibilities include making presentations. You are terrified of speaking in front of a group. You have no idea how to begin organizing your material and you are afraid that your performance will be monotonous and wooden. Sally Chopping will take you through the steps that will result in a powerful presentation. Don't let the fear of public speaking stall your career.
