The way you speak is as important as what you have to say.SpeakOut Training Program

At Trimount, we work closely with you as your personal speech coach, standing by your side until you're ready to solo. One former client found that the SpeakOut Training Program's "combination of confidence building, coaching and feedback" provided just the right balance of support and training, which is what we give to all our clients.

Five Steps to Successful Public Speaking

1.

Benefit: Greater Confidence

We start with simple exercises designed specifically to build your confidence (this is especially helpful if you're a beginner in public speaking or if you've learned English as a second language). We then show you how to outline your speeches for maximum effectiveness (if you prefer to have someone else write your speech, we can do that, too).

2.

Benefit: Stronger Stage Presence

Next, we concentrate on the physical mechanics of public speaking including maintaining eye contact, listening, and projecting vocally so that you can create rapport with your audience. We also focus on relaxation and deep-breathing techniques to help you will feel more poised and in control when speaking, either on stage or in a conference room. 

3.

Benefit: Continuous Improvement

As the SpeakOut Training Program progresses, we suggest practice exercises you can do on your own (at home, in the car, or out walking) which will improve your presentation skills now and in the future.

4.

Benefit: Powerful Presentations

Finally, we teach you how to enhance the power of your speeches dramatically by asking for the sale as you finish (every speech is an opportunity to urge your audience to take an action, no matter what it may be). Your closing becomes a personal invitation, asking those present to buy your product or support your cause. This is the most effective and potent way to end your presentations.

5.

Benefit: Expert Feedback

During the training you'll give several practice speeches including two, videotaped presentations so that we can evaluate your public speaking abilities (self-improvement books and online training lack this interactive feature). These are excellent opportunities to receive expert feedback in a supportive environment, helping 
you to maximize your strengths and eliminate your weaknesses. 

SpeakOut Individual and Group Training

Trimount presents the SpeakOut Training Program in two different formats: individual training for executives and group training for managers.

Individual Training. Whether you want help in all aspects of public speaking or need assistance in a specific area, our individual training can be tailored to your needs. The individual approach offers you greater privacy, as well as personalized instruction not available in a large group.

Group Training. If you're part of a management team that wants to improve the quality of public speaking in your company, group training is the answer. Relying on the group dynamic for mutual reinforcement, our workshops are an ideal setting for you and your colleagues to realize your public speaking goals in a non-threatening atmosphere. The SpeakOut Training Program is offered in full and half-day sessions depending on the number of people participating. 

In general, our fees range from a minimum of $300 for individual training to $2400 for group training. The program can be customized to fit your needs and budget.

SpeakOut training is available Monday through Saturday and can be conducted on site at your office, or at an off-site location as well.
