Communication confidence is…
Confident communicators know that what they have to say can influence how others feel, believe and behave.
They’re authoritative but not arrogant. They’re concise and correct but not curt. They’re empathetic, eloquent and effective.
Effective communication capability is one of the top five attributes that employers want from their teams.
Recent CSIRO and Google studies confirm that demand for effective communication skills has grown the fastest over the past five years, by nearly 16%!
That’s why you’re here – taking a positive step towards alleviating communication problems.
You’d like a happier team that’s less likely to experience the frustration, confusion, and exasperation that poor communication can generate.
You know your people feel motivated and valued when they’re given opportunities to learn new skills and develop their talents – and that’s what energises your team’s performance.
You want the top two skills that 44% of hiring managers say applicants are lacking: proficient writing and public speaking.
You also want to improve productivity goals by reducing the time spent on reading and rewriting over-complicated drafts.

How Can Communication Coaching Change Your Career?
Have you ever met someone who seems to have a natural way with words? They always seem to say the right thing at the right time, they can read other people’s emotions and respond intuitively, and they achieve all of their goals with confidence and grace. A significant factor contributing to that person’s success is effective communication skills. Learning to communicate with confidence has far-reaching effects on every aspect of your life, especially your career. However, if you’re not the best communicator in the world, don’t worry; Presence Communications offers one-to-one communication coaching to help you feel more confident and capable.

Presence Communications’ Top Tips for Communicating With Confidence
Before you begin your individual communication coaching, here are a few things you can do to improve your communication skills right now.
- Maintain eye contact. Whether you’re speaking to one person or a group of people, try to maintain consistent eye contact. You’ll seem a far more credible, empathetic communicator.
- Consider your body language. Effective communication skills aren’t always verbal. You won’t see a confident communicator with their arms crossed, head down, and back slouched. Make sure your body language is inviting and open, so people feel comfortable speaking to you.
- Try to smile. People who smile often when communicating are seen as positive, likable people, and they tend to generate positive responses from others.
- Take time to think. You don’t need to fill every empty silence with word dribble. If someone has asked you a question or asked for your opinion, take a moment or two to carefully consider your response before answering. You’ll come across as far more articulate and thoughtful.
