In this new virtual world, how do you structure what you need to say so that you captivate people, communicate your key messages and motivate them to stay productive? Most of us are zoom fatigued! We are attending on-line meeting after on-line meeting with little personal connection and a serious lack of engagement. We are staring at a photo of our own face from one meeting to the next instead of connecting properly with each other. And then there’s the constant interruptions of people logging in late, bamboozled by the technology, and distracted by their cat or home schooling! This live, interactive, online session will show you how to easily structure your messages for on-line meetings. You want your people or clients engaged the whole time you’re talking, and you also want to inspire them and compel them to take the action you require so everyone stays pumped, purposeful and productivein a remote environment.

Covid-19 has caused stress and uncertainty for most. If you’re a leader how do you persuade your people to stay motivated, focused and productive? If you’re in sales, even though your sales messages might have changed a bit, how do you keep selling and doing business during Covid-19? When your interactions are virtual rather than face to face, how do you keep people up to date? How do you show them what’s still possible? Should you change what you say? What do you do about the fact that you’ve lost the art of reading body language? How will you get under people’s skin so they can’t say no to you? The words you say are way more important than they used to be in this new environment. When you get the words right, you’ll have less arguments and conflict, you’ll build stronger relationships with your clients and team members, you’ll sell more, and you’ll have less meetings, with less backwards and forwards, less politics, and less objections so you’ll get things done.

We all have our own unique and specific challenges when presenting or facilitating our meetings, trainings or conferences. Some people are nervous presenters and would do anything to avoid speaking up in a meeting and being ridiculed. Some people have never been taught presentation skills and just copy what their boss does, hoping for the best. And then there are people who are seriously skilful and want to be even more masterful and captivating! How will this session work? Bring your burning questions to this fully interactive, remote session and let Michelle answer everything you need to know to solve your communication problems right now! Simply ask your questions and she’ll teach you on the spot how to fix it. Key take-aways 1. Feel confident and persuasive the next time you speak up in a meeting. 2. Understand the formulas that work for ANY issue you have. 3. Appreciate for once and for all what is, and is not, best practice.
