The organization does not have to stop. The managers learn by doing their actual work, while gradually incorporating the insights from workshop to develop or improve their real presentations. So, they use workshop time to complete a task from the job.

The content responds to real-life situations. Because we focus on crafting a clear business story, we respond to the typical business situations in which managers need to present to management team, clients or stakeholders.

The transfer of skills and concepts is immediate. Because we incorporate the learning into managers work processes, the skill development takes place in the exact context where that skill will be used. No more “Here’s the theory, now you go figure out how to apply it in real life.”

The methodology we teach is geared to the needs of executive audiences. These audiences juggle with multiple priorities and are always pressed for time. They need a presentation that gets to the point quickly, flows logically and has a clear hierarchy of information.

The investment for this intensive group-mentoring experience is 400 euro/participant.
