We were recently asked to train some delegates via Skype. They were based in Europe and there wasn’t the time or budget to visit them market by market.
We had to make some adjustments but they were straightforward. We viewed the presentation in advance; we knew the purpose & core message; we gave feedback on the slides before Skyping. This process created more delegate commitment to the session and reduced wasted time.
The other insight we were reminded of was how important the voice is in communicating trust, empathy, enthusiasm, conviction. All the body language in the world can’t compensate for that.
The delegates enjoyed the experience too – not only did they all feel their presentations were greatly enhanced and their delivery but they had the minimum disruption to their working day which was a real bonus.
Skype training can be quickly organised and is more flexible. Contact us now to find out more on ++ 44 (0)208 605 3782 or e-mail info@speakersco.co.uk
P.S. The Skype training format also lends itself perfectly to helping people who are running Teleconferencing with their clients. The client has the presentation in advance. What is the step plan you need to sell it?
