Great Communicators training program for teams

We convert teams into charismatic speakers

About the Great Communicators training program

The Great Communicators training program for teams consists of three basic presentation training sessions. First, we focus on the content of the presentations, next on the speakers themselves and finally we integrate that which has been learned into the professional context. This way, we help teams create powerful content, become charismatic speakers and give impactful presentations.

What does it bring you?

After following the Great Communicators training program:

Your team collaborates more effectively, due to the uniting force of a strong, joint story.
Your team communicates with more pleasure and self-confidence.
Your team achieves better results, as they are better able to convince their audience and clients.

Program

Basic presentation training session 1: Sticky Stories

Basic presentation training session 2: Performance

During the second basic presentation training session you learn:

How you to effectively employ your power as a speaker.
How to connect with your audience.
Powerful presentation body language.
Tools for effectively dealing with tension.
How to balance being in touch with yourself and with your audience.
To make smart choices between sharing your expertise and connecting with your audience’s experience and understanding.
To use your breathing and voice to effectively create a powerful story.

Basic presentation training session 3: Manifest

During the third basic presentation training session you learn:

To effectively prepare your presentation, taking into account the content and your personal qualities as a speaker.
To apply what you learned during the previous two sessions to the presentation you will actually be giving in your professional context.
To give your colleagues constructive feedback on their presentation skills.

Practical

Preceding every session we give our participants a short preparatory task. For instance, we ask them to write and practice a three-minute story.

Our basic training sessions can be given wherever the client likes. This could be at your office, but we also rent out our own training location in Amsterdam-Oost. From experience, we know that training sessions have more impact when they take place outside the normal work environment. A different environment ensures more focus and attention, which stimulates the development of the teams.

Our training sessions can be given in Dutch as well as in English.

“Ik heb mijn verhaal echt verbeterd”
~ Miriam Melchers, letsplantahead.com

"Ik ben Spreken met Impact gestart om te vertellen over mijn internationale carrière. De opleiding heeft mij geïnspireerd om te praten over wat ik echt belangrijk vind: een plant-based lifestyle. In deze periode ben ik ook Plant Ahead gestart. Dankzij de docenten en de groep heb ik mijn verhaal verbeterd en heb ik kunnen testen welke verhaallijn het meeste impact maakt. En dit is pas het begin!"

“Nieuwe inzichten en goede energie”
~ Winnie Gebhardt, universitair hoofddocent

"De opleiding Vrouwelijk Leiderschap in Spreken geeft alles wat het belooft. Na de training zeer voldaan naar huis tjokvol nieuwe inzichten en goede energie. Heel veel dank aan de super trainers en warme betrokken andere deelnemers."

“Ik heb plezier gekregen in spreken”
~ Geke Kiers, organisatieadviseur

"Wat ik bij Great Communicators vooral leerde, is de kwaliteit van je presentaties verder opbouwen. Ik heb plezier gekregen in het spreken voor groepen. Ik krijg daar positieve feedback op, dus anderen merken het ook."

For whom has the Great Communicators training program for teams been created?

Only too often we see people with powerful ideas, solutions and visions fail to make the impact they deserve. This could be due to how the story has been set up or to how the speaker appears to feel about it. The audience might also intuit that the speaker is not entirely convinced themself. We teach people to speak from their own power. The people we help, often already have ample experience with communicating. They are ambitious and want to learn how to make maximum impact with their presentations. Our sessions help people come across more powerfully, both when presenting and during their daily communications.

Why Great Communicators?

Great Communicators was founded because we believe that people grow exponentially once we teach them to speak with impact. Within just a few weeks of founding our company, we were approached with the request to coach the speakers of TEDxAmsterdam. These TEDx coaching sessions brought us into contact with a network of CEOs, politicians and scientists – who asked us to provide them with presentation and media coaching. This taught us that, though every speaker is unique, they all face the same challenges.
In order to help cope with these challenges, we developed our own Impact Method, followed by our own training courses. We have since helped thousands of professionals make more impact with their presentations. Especially for organizations, we have now also developed a short program, based on the Impact Method, to help teams communicate with more power. We have worked together with Triodos, The Rijksmuseum, Adyen, RTL, Fairphone, Microsoft, ABN AMRO Bank and Amnesty International.
