Presenting with Purpose & Passion - Presence Communications

Pitch your ideas with persuasive power!

Presenting with Purpose & Passion is a hands-on workshop (yes, you will be speaking in front of the class) that teaches you how to express your ideas effectively – to encourage your audience to understand your views, trust your judgement, adopt new mindsets, change behaviours, and believe that you are confident, competent and credible.

While the workshop can be customised for a one-day or two-day event, the core program always includes practical tips for persuasive pitching, presenting and general public speaking. This includes preparing a slide deck from scratch as well as strategies to ‘stand and deliver’ it confidently.

“I had the good fortune to engage Leanne to provide two days training to a group of community workers specialising in the youth homelessness sector. Leanne took the time to research the services involved and was able to gain a good sense of her target audience.

The group was well engaged in a series of informative, practical and challenging tasks throughout the two days and came away with a variety of outcomes, most notably a better understanding of how they could work together as a team and with more confidence in being able to represent their organisations.”
