Presentation Skills

Our presentation skills training and 1:1 public speaking coaching will hone the skills of novice and experienced speakers.

Time Management

Today, you need to make the most of your precious time. We understand that the pressure of continually being asked to do more in less time can lead to long hours, poor decisions and stress.

Our popular time management training courses teach a range of practical, proven techniques and tools that are, if implemented, guaranteed to help you and your staff get more done in less time.

You'll learn how to prioritise the important over the urgent. We'll show you how to use simple systems to keep on top of your ever expanding to do list. We'll help you to avoid email overwhelm and how to stay focused for better productivity.

Management Skills

Becoming a manager is one of the most exciting and scary career moves. Now you are responsible for the output of others as well as yourself. There's an art to getting the most out of your team.

Our management skills training programs turn good supervisors into great managers. We cover topics like; how to set goals and manage performance; how to deal with different people; how to give effective feedback.

An employee's relationship with their line manager is the single most important factor in determining their performance, so investing wisely in management training makes sound business sense.

After realising the mistakes I was making and more importantly how my nerves were being viewed by the audience I will make a big effort to increase my preparation and be less nervous when speaking. The PREP strategy was particularly useful to me both personally and professionally.

Louie French, Best Invest

"I have known Gavin for a number of years now and I can highly recommend his calm and logical way of instantly giving you confidence in your own unique presentation style. I love the fact that he builds you up making the most of your natural way of doing things rather than trying to make you fit into the presentation box that works for him. Simple techniques like knowing how many words my speech should have and how long that should last have made me aware of the speed I talk."

Sheryl Andrews

"Gavin's talk was excellent - perfect, concise and plenty useful information even in a limited time slot. He has made me reconsider how I present my pitch"

"A well constructed, balanced presentation with effective exercises and feedback. Gavin created a relaxed, informal atmosphere that encouraged questions and comments. Overall a good value course which covered all the main points that I am likely to encounter. Many thanks!"
