Presentation and Training Skills for Business People ... Make It Memorable!

"Cool" and "hot" tools, tips, and techniques to help your audiences remember you ... and your message!

You will benefit from this program if you: give professional presentations; speak at networking groups, make sales presentations, train your staff.
Think for a moment of all the chamber of commerce meetings, networking events, sales meetings, seminars, speeches and workshops you've ever attended.  Did you remember anything that the speaker, host or presenter said?  There ARE some practical ways to increase the likelihood of YOUR audiences remembering you and your message.  In this program, you'll learn to apply the skills that increase your positive impact ... and make the most of your speaking, networking and training opportunities.

Some topics include:  preparing for the performance; telling the story; voice acting and modulation;  improving nonverbal communications; when to use (and when NOT to use) humor and props.

Available as a keynote speech and as a half-day workshop.

Your Future Self

Your "Future-Self" is YOU in the future! 

In what areas would you like your future to be better than the present? What old habits need to go... and what new habits would improve your work, and your life? Are you in a rut that you need to break out of? Are old, out-dated patterns of behavior and belief holding you back?

This is a powerful workshop for business owners and executives, taking goal setting and strategic planning to a new level.

Jerry will produce an audio recording for each participant (CD or cassette) containing positive statements, reminders and affirmations from the point-of-view of their optimal Future-Self. 

Four to five hours. Maximum of eight attendees.
(This service is also available on a one-on-one basis.)
