Public speaking training information

Knowing how to speak in public is one of the most important professional skills. A good speech gives us a good professional image, while a presentation where we feel overwhelmed by stress will leave a very poor impression with our clients, colleagues or peers.
Who has not already felt a strong apprehension at the idea of ​​speaking in public? Who has not already felt that the messages communicated were not going to have the desired effect?
If in some Anglo-Saxon countries, the culture of “public speaking” is part of the training course from “high school”, it is clear that this aspect of training represents a cultural deficit in Switzerland, while expectations nonetheless remain high.

How to manage your stress in front of your audience? What are the presentation techniques that allow us to capture attention and convey messages clearly? How to surprise and convince your audience? Should we address all audiences in the same way? What messages does my bodylanguage convey?
The “public speaking” training aims to answer these questions and to provide the tools that will allow you to progress throughout your career.

So that speaking out is no longer experienced as an obligation or a nightmare, but as a pleasure and a professional accelerator!

Anyone required to present in public

– Gain confidence in front of your audience
– Improve presentation techniques
– Master the speech to convince your audience

TESTIMONIALS

Piguet Galland started collaborating with Stand'Impro in March 2017. We trained some of our communication managers. The training was extremely well received by our collaborators both from the point of view of the added value and for the approach of the speaker: creation of the bond of trust, dynamics, practical aspects, everything was brought together so that the training becomes a real moment of professional development. It is with pleasure that we recommend the training offered by Stand’Impro

Our group, GFMS, has been working with Stand’Impro since 2013 as part of training. Stand'Impro works with our distribution teams, our salespeople and marketing. I have personally seen the work that has been done in a relatively short time: a human level, a quality level with its Founding President, Andreas Ventouras. My teams have considerably improved their way of presenting. Beyond that, what was fabulous was the level of confidence of my teams to present to the sales teams, they were boosted like I had never seen them until now!

I had the opportunity to attend this communication training in 2023. I especially valued the adaptable component of the session. The participants expressed their various needs starting with getting more confident and managing stress to be more engaging for the audience and convincing it. The different goals of the participants created a positive dynamic and the trainer could propose a tailored approach to all of us. The combination of practical exercises with theorical items was very well balanced. Eventually, it felt as a great accomplishment to see all of us clearly evolving during these two days. The limited number of participants helped in this way. Thank you Stand’Impro for this insightful training experience.

Our company, Transports Publics Genevois (TPG), has decided to train the members of its management in public speaking through Stand’Impro. We particularly appreciated the adaptability of the trainer who was able to take into account the different levels and needs as well as the personalities of each participant in the training. The Stand’Impro approach also showed very positive and measurable effects in a relatively short time on the participants who took the communication training. Therefore, we have decided to continue in a sustainable and sustainable way with this training to speak in public and to introduce it to other employees for the next few years to come.

For more than a year, I followed individual coaching with Stand'Impro. The process was carried out as part of my professional development plan. Certain aspects were identified by my Manager during the annual interviews and we decided to work on these points using a professional structure, dedicated to training and coaching. After a year, my Manager noticed points of improvement concerning me, although he found them very challenging at the start. My personal entourage has also perceived an evolution on several points. On the strength of this positive experience, we decided to perpetuate this practice within my team for other employees.

We have been nominated by the Geneva Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Services (CCIG) as one of the most innovative companies in 2013. To present ourselves and our technological innovations, we called on Stand 'Impro. During the presentation, the jury unanimously awarded us the innovation prize! It was the first time in the history of the CCIG that a jury unanimously awarded a prize to a company. We highly recommend Stand'Impro.

This training will be useful to me throughout my career and I highly recommend the effective and original approach that Stand'Impro offers.

I had the opportunity to follow individual coaching in 2014, with Stand'Impro. The idea being to work on asserting myself, being rather introverted and uncomfortable with taking up space. We had the opportunity to work on different communication exercises. Note that these exercises were filmed, which is very interesting to be able to really realize how we behave and how we communicate something to others. Ways of development could be identified and concrete tips were given to me to communicate more effectively, and therefore, to give the feeling to my interlocutor of being more assertive. I would like to thank Stand'Impro for its support and advice and I highly recommend it to anyone wishing to find ways to communicate better.

The City of Geneva's training center has been collaborating with Stand'Impro since 2015. While public speaking training was our first experience, we subsequently particularly appreciated Stand'Impro's ability to respond to changing our needs and to develop its training systems. It is thanks to this listening to the client and the experience of the trainer that we have managed to develop a module on interpersonal skills that combines public speaking, behavioral psychology and philosophy of theatrical improvisation. At a time of digitalization and the growing hybridization of training systems, this face-to-face course is a great success with our audiences who live a real training experience for 2 days. In addition to the humour, the benevolence and the quality of the exchanges with the speaker, the participants note in their evaluation the positive effects of the training on strengthening and self-confidence.

I had the opportunity to attend this communication training in English in 2023. I especially valued the adaptable component of the session. The participants expressed their various needs, starting with getting more confident and managing stress to be more engaging and convincing to the audience. The participants' different goals created a positive dynamic, and the trainer could propose a tailored approach for all of us. The combination of practical exercises with theoretical items was very well balanced. Eventually, it felt like a great accomplishment to see all of us clearly evolving over the two days. The limited number of participants helped in this way. Thank you, Stand’Impro, for this insightful training experience
