Communication Workshops
Practical, hands-on workshops for students, researchers, startups and professionals who want to share their ideas and expertise without losing their audience.
Whether you’re pitching an idea, presenting research, engaging stakeholders or explaining something complex to a non-expert audience, you’ll learn practical tools to help people understand, remember and act on what you share.
Lunch & Learn: Expertise to Influence Masterclass
A lively, practical session built on the Expertise to Influence Framework™.
Your product, service or research matters. But somewhere between the detail and the jargon, your audience gets lost. And when people are confused, they don’t buy in.
In 90 minutes, participants learn how to turn what they know into messages people remember and act on. They leave ready to use it in their next presentation, pitch or meeting.
Ideal for: startups, corporate teams, universities and team learning sessions.
Make Them Care: Let Your Ideas Take Off
Your students and founders have great ideas. But when they pitch to panels, investors or judges, the message often gets lost and the opportunity slips away.
More explanation won’t fix it. In this hands-on workshop, participants learn the Make Them Care Framework™ and apply it to their own pitch or idea, refining it until their audience truly gets it.
Outcomes you can measure:
-
Clearer, more memorable pitches with a strong call to action
-
A before-and-after comparison of audience understanding and recall
-
Participants ready for demo days, 3MT, grant applications and competitions
Ideal for: high school students, university research students, startup incubators and conferences.
