Corporate Training:

This workshop can be customized to meet your specific objectives. Depending on your needs, we can structure a one or two-day workshop, with video-taping of participants who get an opportunity to practice their newly-learned skills on camera. We don't believe in "off the shelve" presentation skills training and we work with you to meet your specific needs. Powerful presentations need a clearly identified objective, a succinct central message, a strategy for designing your presentation, an understanding of how to create powerful visuals that support rather than detract from your message and preparation and practice. Different speaking events require different strategies. We help you to craft and polish your presentation so that you shine!

Presentation Skills Coaching:

Bruna Martinuzzi also provides one-on-one coaching for presentation skills to prepare you for an up-coming important event or to help you enhance your public speaking skills for general use. Investing some time to enhance this skill will pay dividends for your career and boost your self-confidence.

The Leader's Voice™

"I enjoyed the opportunity to work with a great instructor and a wonderful group of like-minded people. Bruna's knowledge is outstanding. Also her ability to demonstrate the skills through her own presentation is inspiring. This workshop has given me much greater awareness of the ability that we have to make a real difference to our own staff and clients."

–Brian Kipp, President, SDS Software

The Leader's Voice

Communication is the biggest area of dysfunction, and provides the biggest area opportunity for improvement, in organizations.

The Leader's Voice strikes right at the heart of leadership communications. It helps individuals get clear about who they are, what their message is, and how they articulate their message so that people hear it, get it and act upon it.

Our research demonstrates that people communicate through three distinct channels:
