Are presenters born or are they made?
Presenters are most certainly made. And that is good news because nothing is going to have a more material impact on your career path than your ability or inability to create and deliver compelling presentations with comfort and authority.
Have you ever seen a person whom you respect give a terrible presentation? Of course you have, we all have. The point is, did your opinion of that person’s credibility go down? Of course it did. Your peers, your subordinates, and your superiors are going to make long lasting judgments about your credibility by the way you handle yourself in front of a group.
The good news is that this course is designed to give you a solid foundation of the skills and techniques necessary to become a compelling presenter. Also, you will learn to avoid the MANY egregious mistakes most presenters make that annoy their audiences and destroy their own credibility.
Compelling presenters are not born, they are made and you are about to become one.

About Marty
Wickedly funny, and painfully honest, Marty Clarke’s compelling keynote speeches, workshops and seminars continue to draw large and enthusiastic audiences worldwide.
His first book, Communication Land Mines, 18 Communication Catastrophes and How to Avoid Them was written directly as a result of all of his years of sales experience on both sides of the decision maker's desk. The book sold out its first printing and has been recently translated into Mandarin.
Currently, Marty is the principal of Martin Productions (www.martyclarke.com), a highly successful consulting firm, through which Marty focuses his attention on:
• Keynote speeches
• Custom training sessions
• Sales team turn-around
