Untrained unskilled presenters kill their organisation’s brand and they kill their own personal brand. Don’t do that—get the training! The long term damage to your career is frightening, so invest in yourself and become respected as persuasive and professional.
We all know that being persuasive is a critical business skill but you might not know that Dale Carnegie training has been teaching presentation skills since 1912. Your career is in safe hands—we are the oldest and the best— the simple truth is that we have unmatched experience in this area. By the way, we teach in over 90 countries and 30 languages around the world. So we bring this depth of experience to the training classes and you can be assured that what you learn is totally tested and validated.
Our training classroom is a living laboratory, a totally safe environment for you to experiment, to challenge yourself, to stretch yourself and to never fear any embarrassment. We all learn by making mistakes, uncovering what is working and not working—but absolutely DON’T DO THIS when the stakes are high. Instead, come to our training and learn away from the bright lights and critical comments of others. Learn in a fully supportive caring environment, where our only aim is to help you become the absolute best you can be.
The coaching you receive is the difference, the Dale Carnegie difference. We will help you to unlock your full potential. A One Day investment of your time is not a big cost to become cool, calm and collected when presenting. Get the training!
