“D*mn this is good.”
- You, when you see your team give their presentations after my presentation training workshop
All the data in the world doesn’t matter if your audience doesn’t remember it or care
If your team struggles with:
Lackluster opening lines like “hello, my name is”
Borderline (or fully) boring presentations
Never-ending text-packed slide decks
Final slides with “questions” or “thank you” instead of a CTA
Has figuratively or actually put an audience to sleep
I'm here to rescue them and tell you there is absolutely a better way.
Ditch the outdated, grossly generalized speaking tips you googled for your team last night at 11:39pm.
You know the ones:
“know your audience”
“practice”
“breathe”
It's time for your team to take on a fresh presentation approach.
Swap out boredom and get your boardroom buzzing for your presentations
When your team is interested in the content they’re presenting, they’re interesting to listen to.
When they’re interesting to listen to, their audience is interested in what they’re presenting.

An interested audience buys (in).
I want this for your team every time they present - an interested, salivating-at-the-mouth audience.
Want to captivate your crowd? Close your next deal?
Create unarguable buy-in for your pitch?
Teach your audience how to subdue a freshwater crocodile with 1 hand?

This is a pull you out from the audience kind of experience
This isn’t you coming, sitting and listening to me talk for 75 min. This is me teaching, you practicing LIVE, and me giving you feedback
My workshops are not a spectator sport. You get involved too.
You’re the star, I’m just your coach.
Public speaking is a verbal sport. In order to play, you have to speak out loud.
These workshops are highly interactive and will ask for participation. This means, you can expect your teams to be asked to:
In-person:
Collaborate as a collective table or group
Speak out loud in front of others
Record themselves on camera
Virtually:
Interact and respond to prompts in the chat
Unmute their lines and share with the group
The workshops I participated in were so incredibly informative and I was able to put it into practice immediately
“Hannah is inspirational and has an amazing delivery that draws you in. While her workshops are captivating, you are hardly held captive as she turns the tables to share how those abilities can be learned and put to practice in daily interactions and presentations.
