Your boss has asked you to give a presentation on your work at the next company meeting. You tell her you'd be happy to. But that sinking sensation in the pit of your stomach tells you otherwise. You want to run away to some place, any place far away. And you think, "Oh no! What did I do to deserve this? Somebody, anybody, please save me."

The day of your presentation arrives. Fifty people are gathered, waiting for you to begin. Your boss introduces you in glowing terms. You get up slowly from your chair and walk to the front of the room, notes in hand. You arrive in the lectern, place your notes down, and look out at the gathering of faces before you. Then it happens.

The palms of your hands suddenly grow cold and clammy. Your mouth goes dry as parched sand. Your knees wobble a bit. You shift from one foot to the other. And your mind goes blank like a person dazed and confused. You stammer for a second or two and let out a couple of ums and ahs. You look down at your notes and launch into your talk as best you can.

Somehow, you manage to get through it. But you think, “Never again. Not for all the money in the universe do I want to go through that again.”

Well, relax. You don’t have to read on.

What Makes Talking in Front of Others So Bad?

It's the anxiety and fear of failing in front of others. Stand-up comic and television star, Jerry Seinfeld, once quipped, "Most people would rather be dead than speak in public. So I guess if there's a funeral, you're better off in the coffin than giving the eulogy."

It doesn’t have to be that way. Not any more, thanks to How to Give the Best Presentation of Your Life, brought to you by Dr. Joanne G. Sujansky, Founder and CEO of KEYGroup.

As she tells it, “Speaking isn’t always a talent people are born with. But it is definitely a skill you can learn.”

Dr. Sujansky has distilled what she has learned on her way to becoming a professional speaker. And based on her own experience and the hundreds of clients she has consulted with over the past 25 years, she has created How to Give the Best Presentation of Your Life.

You don’t have to be a speaking professional to benefit from her experience. But chances are, your forward career path depends on your ability to speak publicly. Like it or not, your next promotion may come not because of how smart you are, but on how well you get your message across to others

The Performance Indictator
The Performance Indicator™ is a DISC-type assessment that reveals an individual’s job performance and aspects of  their personality that could impact their fit with their manager, coworkers and team. It is used primarily for motivating and coaching employees and resolving post-hire conflict and performance issues.

This assessment specifically measures an individual’s motivational intensity and behaviors related to productivity, quality of work, initiative, teamwork, problem solving, and adapting to change, as well as response to stress, frustration, and conflict. The output from this assessment serves as a “manager’s operating manual” for an employee, which helps managers better motivate, coach, and communicate with the employee. It also helps to predict and minimize conflict among co-workers, and provides crucial information for improving team selection and performance. 
Cost $125.00 – Includes the assessment and a 30 minute debrief.

The “job matching” feature in this assessment is unique, and it enables you to evaluate an individual relative to the qualities required to successfully perform a specific job. It is used throughout the employee life cycle for selection, on-boarding, managing and strategic workforce planning.

This assessment reveals consistent, in-depth, and objective insight into an individual’s thinking and reasoning style, relevant behavioral traits, occupational interests, and match to specific jobs in your organization. It helps your managers interview and select people who have the highest probability of being successful in a role, and provides practical recommendations for coaching them to maximum performance. It also gives your organization consistent language and metrics to support strategic workforce and succession planning, talent management and reorganization efforts.    
Cost $275.00 – Includes the assessment and a 45 minute debrief.

Coaching by Telephone – Six 1-hour Sessions
What is coaching?
Great managers will tell you that their best management skills were learned by coaching and mentoring by other great leaders.  A coach is someone who will challenge and support your efforts to reach your leadership potential.  An executive coach acts as a sounding board and is able to help you prioritize tasks, actions, and strategies that can only enhance your growth as well as your organization’s bottom line.

Why work with a coach?
How many people and issues do you face every day?  How many times a day are you called upon to explain, encourage, challenge and motivate others?  Have you ever asked yourself, who cares about my development?  If you are serious about bettering yourself as a leader and maximizing your potential, then a personal executive coach can help you focus on yourself so that you and your team can benefit from your growth.  A coach is able to assess your strengths and weaknesses by listening and then posing questions.  A coach can help you to pinpoint your leadership abilities and development areas with tools and proven techniques that work.

What are the benefits?

  • Decrease your stress level without compromising your success level
  • Reveal your opportunities and learn how to better use your talents
  • Create a game plan to achieve your goals
  • Clarify and set your specific goals for the future
  • Reap the rewards of personal and professional growth and development

How Does it Work?
We begin with an assessment to identify your leadership skills.  A coach will then review your strengths and weaknesses, work with you to establish goals and develop a plan for accelerating your leadership development.
Coaching sessions are one hour in length and are supported through e-mails that establish and prioritize what was discussed in the session.  Professional growth exercises are developed specific to the goals you want to accomplish.  Weekly follow-ups also monitor the course of action and make adjustments when necessary.

What will a coach do for you?

1.  Be an honest mentor.
2.  Be mutually accountable for your growth.
3.  Serve as a resource of information and ideas.
4.  Help you explore the opportunities that may be in your future.
5.  Generate a game plan for your personal growth and development.
