The public sector

Public money must be spent with great care – the sector is in the spotlight and must be seen to be doing more with less.

Effectively leading and inspiring public servants, who must understand and put into practice legislation, procedures, rules, regulations and standards, is vital.

Powerful public speaking skills help to deliver these training and management results.

Self-employed, sole traders, SMEs

Present yourself and your own business more effectively, gain confidence, and give yourself a better chance of success

The legal profession

In court cases, adjudications and tribunals, duties include appealing, interviewing and cross-examining, presenting and summing up.

Juries, magistrates and board members need to hear arguments and evidence and follow cross examinations before reaching their own verdict. The barrister must explain, clarify, illustrate, engage – and persuade.

Jobseeking and career development 

Speaking Well in Public can deliver a tailored practical course for your team members who will be moving on, perhaps as part of your Outplacement programme.

Your bespoke event can combine public speaking and presentation skills with advice on CV writing and an introduction to the principles and skills required for effective interview techniques.

Teachers, lecturers, trainers

Speaking skills allow the teacher to convey knowledge from one mind to another in as interesting and effective a manner possible, capturing and keeping attention, firing the imagination, guiding, coaching and inspiring the student’s confidence in their new knowledge and skills.

Religious life

Whatever the religion or denomination, the principles and the duties are the same; to read aloud from the text and to lead a congregation for celebration, consolation, guidance, teaching and inspiration.

Students

In today’s challenging climate, employers are looking for people with transferable communication skills and the potential to develop. We can help students present themselves and their abilities so they stand out from the crowd.

Making presentations for college

Presenting themselves and their employable qualities with clarity and confidence
