Anyways, it was taught by an Actor chap called Michael Charlesworth, been on TV, you would know his face if you saw him.

My skills in this area are (or were) zilch. I would turn into a tongue tied cabbage once up in front of an audience. To those who know me, u know i am not a shy quiet person :) . I could deliver, but i would sound like a robot.

Over the 2 days he has captivated us and given even the biggest challenges (me) the skills to present and also to feel like i could stand up in Parliament and speak. What an absolutely amazing course. I have done 100s of courses over the years as i work in IT, almost all of them technical. This is the first course i have actually enjoyed and felt sorry it ended.

If you work in this line and present, i strongly recommend finding one of these course, it will pay your company dividends and also YOU.

I am buzzing and wanted to share :D
Nice one Timbo, I did a comprehensive training course including presentations and councelling and found that the councelling helped no end when dealing with my two kids! Defo recommend it, not too fluffy bunnikins or tree huggin either.

Cool 8)
I've just got back from two days of giving training to a certain london police team and I must say the old addage of just 'imagine them naked' just doesn't work any more 8O
Maybe I should look into a more modern course or they should hire more women :wink:
