** Stand Up & Speak - The Confidence & Capability **

Over the last few decades I’ve spoken at huge (business) events and conferences around the world including London, Paris, Cannes, Frankfurt, Barcelona, Halifax (Canada), NYC, Atlanta, etc. I’ve also given eulogies, been a best man multiple times, and given awards. I’d love to share what works and what doesn’t when talking to any audience of any size. At home, work or school. Whatever. And mostly how to get the confidence to stand up in the first place :)

Extra information

Let me know what worries you and what you may want to give a talk about.

You are or want to work for yourself. Freedom. The potential rewards. You have an idea. A good idea. But where do you start? What’s necessary to get the idea in a company form, so that you can get paid for your idea. And make profits. Over the last three decades, I’ve set up a number of firms - and grown them into 7 figure revenue operations. From scratch. Through thick and thin. I’ve learned what matters, and what doesn’t. I’d like to share this with you.

TRAINING TO EMBODY EFFECTIVE MANAGERIAL COMMUNICATION IN THE PROFESSIONAL FRAMEWORK
➤ Being a good manager is also being a good communicator. After all, a strategy can only be put into practice if you show yourself capable of interacting with your employees, of being a source of inspiration for them and of listening to their concerns. Unfortunately, not all managers naturally excel in this role and their difficulties in asserting themselves as true leaders is often attributable to their difficulties in communicating. ➤ The objective would then be to explore together the areas of improvement in terms of communication know-how. And managing effectively requires specific and advanced know-how. ➤ In fact, managerial communication corresponds to the interactions between the management of the company and the organization and more specifically, between the manager and his team. This executive is in charge of transmitting information and directives from higher hierarchical levels, supporting internal communication, distilling messages related to his own management to obtain the commitment of his team, all while transmitting a message effectively. ➤ This exercise can therefore be tricky: this is why it is important to choose the right mediator in order to be well supported, not only to be understood by those around him, but also to carry out his mission. ➤ What to communicate? When ? Whose ? These questions will find an answer in the consistency of the actions undertaken. Good managerial communication will thus aim to exchange / dialogue effectively with its employees, maintain a close link between the different layers of the company, bring human relations back to the heart of the company, establish a climate of trust and good team cohesion, motivate by inspiring. ➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practice exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can put them into practice immediately, and this from the 1st session. Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 or 3 sessions *. (* study 2020). ➤ THE TRAINER: Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication , in reputable international public and private establishments, intervening in forums and conferences, and oriented on two axes: training and coaching, with pedagogy and careful methodology as key words. ➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES - Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Bâle-Neuchâtel-Berne-Lucerne-Bruxelles-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid, this format also unanimously suitable for those accompanied. -Apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time savings related to travel, eco-responsibility, increased scheduling flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain the same. In addition, the notes taken during the sessions are immediately transcribed on the session chat and are automatically transmitted to you so that you can browse them during and after the session if you wish. - Hourly fees: To support each other and to be pleasant to you in this period of covid19 and in a spirit of solidarity, the fees have been temporarily reduced. But this fixed price will not increase after the start of the sessions. -Sessions in English / French -As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round. -Program: adapted to each need

✅ COPYWRITER, ADVERTISING WRITER, DESIGNER-EDITOR: ENHANCE YOUR CONTENT TO OFFER IT BETTER
Copywriting is the art of selling with words. In short, it's written marketing. Concretely, a copywriter (or copywriter) writes content tailored for the sale of a product or service. And precisely, it is either: - to offer you concrete techniques, a clear methodology and pragmatic tools to learn how to write quality content yourself for your own needs - or to help you directly to promote the content of your product and design a text, a letter, a hook, a slogan, write marketing files, press releases, an internet page, blog posts, advertising banners and newsletters (...) in an impactful and optimal way. Choose the appropriate terms and format them in order to convey an idea, a message, in the most relevant, effective and persuasive way possible. So, how can you write writing highlighting a brand, a product, a person or simply a company... in order to promote it and gain visibility? This is why, to help you on the one hand, to create strong, attractive and synthetic messages but also on the other hand, to teach you to do it for yourself, it will be a question of precisely understanding your needs, your product, your strategy, the values you wish to convey (...). Objective: to be creative enough to capture the attention of your audience and make readers want it. With reusable writing, making your communication profitable, increasing your notoriety and achieving your objectives (...) allows you to make a lasting impression over time. Because always keep in mind that the writing remains. Develop your visual approach, compare the coherence of the text with the guideline but also the coherence of the idea with the graphic concept: it is also a question of assuming the tasks of coordination. If you also wish to train yourself to write other content yourself, the training can include deepening your writing skills to give personality to your texts, developing ideas, concepts and their implementation, creativity/presentation techniques... all anchored in practical exercises and scenarios. ➤ THE COPYWRITER TRAINER Trained at the Grande Ecole post-European preparatory classes & Ivy League University in the United States, our teacher has specialized and worked for more than 17 years, in Europe and North America, in the field. On the one hand as a copywriter then as director of communication / advertising agencies. On the other hand, as a trainer in this field in renowned public and private international establishments, speaking in forums and conferences. ➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES ✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Basel-Neuchâtel-Bern-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon. But currently, these sessions continue to be offered by videoconference in the current context and in accordance with general demand which is almost unanimous on this subject. ✓ Indeed, apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time saving related to travel & their unforeseen events, eco-responsibility, increased schedule flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain identical. In addition, the entire exchange, notes and recommendations are immediately transcribed on the dedicated chat. ✓ Languages: French/English. ✓ Progress following these private sessions is noticeable after 1 to 2 sessions (*2025 study). ✓ As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round. CONTACT / PROGRAM ✓ A la carte program: evaluated and adapted to each need.
