Delivering Powerful Presentations

What You’ll Get Out Of This Course

We’ve all been there: you’ve poured hours into a Powerpoint presentation only to have your audience stare blankly at you as you deliver it. “Death by Powerpoint” is all too real these days…

During this personal coaching session, a Jabba coach will make sure you rock your next presentation with a vocal & physical delivery that will make those slides come alive. We will also comment on your production, how you engage on your chosen meeting platform & how to improve your slides.

Our job is to make sure you grab & hold onto your audience’s attention from the get-go, so that your message sticks & inspires them into action at the end.

We Teach The Engaging Communication Trifecta

1. Body: When you combine powerful speaking with assertive facial expressions & dominant body language, you’ll be able to move & motivate your audience. In fact, 55% of meaning is conveyed through body language alone.
2. Voice: Did you know that 38% of communication relies on vocal tone? So it’s not just what you say, but how you say it. With the rise of remote work & digital meeting platforms, nailing your vocal tone is more important than ever.
3. Production: Whether you’re presenting in person or digitally, don’t allow your setup to let you down.

How The Process Works

1. Once you have completed your purchase you will receive an email with a link to book the date & time for your personal coaching session. You can review our payment & cancellation terms here: Terms & Conditions.
2. You will fill out a pre-coaching questionnaire so we know exactly what you would like to work on.
3. During the coaching session, we look at 15 different aspects of your performance & setup (Jabba’s Engaging Speaking & Performance 15 scoring methodology or ESP15).
4. After the session, we will give you qualitative as well as quantitative feedback on each point with corrections & exercises. 
5. For best results, we recommend at least 2 coaching sessions, a week apart.

Customer Review

“Easily one of the best soft skills training sessions I have ever had on any topic. I haven’t seen a presentation skills course that provides this sort of insight & coaching for your entire “performance” in a virtual meeting, including voice, body language & eye contact.”
