In today’s fast-paced business world, being able to communicate ideas clearly and confidently is a key leadership skill. Whether you're pitching to clients, running team meetings, or speaking at events, the way you present can shape how others see you.

At Presenter Studio, our public speaking training for professionals is built around real-world situations. We don’t just teach techniques – we help you apply them in the settings that matter most to your work.

One of the first things we address is structure. Most professionals overcomplicate their content. We help you build clear, focused presentations using a simple three-part structure: What’s the message? Why does it matter? What’s the call to action?

We also look at tone and delivery. Many professionals speak too fast or fill gaps with “um” or “like.” These habits can dilute your authority. We help you replace filler with pauses and teach you how to use emphasis to guide your audience.

Eye contact is another key skill. When speaking in meetings or small groups, make sure to include everyone by moving your gaze around the room. In larger settings, divide the audience mentally into zones and connect with each one.

And finally, we teach you to speak with intention. Every sentence should move the audience forward. Cut out waffle, be clear, and speak like you mean it.

For professionals who want to speak with credibility, warmth and clarity, our training offers long-lasting impact.

Feeling nervous before speaking in public is normal – even seasoned presenters experience it. The key isn’t to eliminate nerves, but to manage them so they don’t take over. At Presenter Studio, we coach clients to reframe nerves as energy – and to use that energy in a positive way.

One simple and effective tip is to breathe deeply before speaking. Shallow breathing triggers anxiety, while deep, controlled breaths tell your body you’re safe. We teach breathing techniques that help settle nerves and focus your voice.

Another technique is preparation – but not just memorising words. Prepare your structure. Know your key messages and the points you want to make. This gives you a mental map to follow, even if you feel thrown.

Rehearsing out loud is also critical. Reading through notes isn’t enough. Practise your opening out loud several times so it becomes familiar. That first minute is often the hardest, so the more rehearsed it is, the more confident you’ll feel.

We also help clients identify their ‘anchor’ – something physical like where you place your hands or how you stand. This can ground you and create a sense of control.

With the right techniques and some coaching, it’s possible not just to survive public speaking, but to enjoy it.

Public speaking isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being present, engaging and real. At Presenter Studio, we coach people from all industries to speak with confidence and clarity – whether they’re delivering a keynote, presenting at work or standing on stage for the first time.

One of the biggest mistakes people make is focusing too much on themselves. Instead, shift your attention to the audience. What do they need from you? What do you want them to take away? Speaking with purpose helps calm nerves and gives your message focus.

We also work on voice and pace. Slowing down not only helps the audience understand you better – it gives you time to think. Try pausing between ideas. Pauses add power and allow your key messages to land.

Movement matters too. When presenting, avoid pacing or fidgeting. Instead, stand still for impact and walk only when you’re changing energy or introducing a new idea. This creates structure and keeps the audience grounded.

If you’re looking to elevate your public speaking, work with coaches who understand how to bring out your natural style. That’s what our training is all about – helping you become the most confident and authentic version of yourself on stage.

If you're representing your brand in the media, you’re also speaking in public – just to a much bigger, often unseen audience. That’s why media training and public speaking skills are closely connected. Our course helps you master both, so you can feel at ease whether you're on stage, in a studio, or speaking to camera.

Great public speakers know how to hold attention. Great media spokespeople know how to land messages. In our sessions, we combine both disciplines – helping you feel in control of your voice, message and delivery.

A key part of this course is presence. We work on breath, pace, and pauses to give your voice authority and variation. We also explore how to stand or sit with presence – without stiffness – so your body language matches your message.

In the media, you rarely get a second chance. That’s why we train you to think in short, sharp soundbites. This means cutting out jargon, simplifying your message, and using clear, emotive language that sticks.

Another powerful tool we teach is storytelling. Whether it’s a keynote or a media interview, stories humanise your message and create emotional connection. We show you how to use personal anecdotes, case studies, or simple metaphors to make your points come alive.

Our course also covers media interview formats – from hostile questions to friendly chats – and how to adjust your delivery for each.

With our coaching, you’ll develop a consistent, confident speaking style that works across every platform and performance.

When it comes to high-pressure media appearances, good intentions aren’t enough. You need training that’s grounded in real-world experience, tailored to your role, and focused on results. Our Best Media Training Course is trusted by CEOs, spokespeople, experts and creatives across the UK and beyond.

We don’t believe in formulaic training. Every course is led by award-winning producers and media experts with a background in national TV and news. You’ll learn how the media really works – from the inside – and how to use interviews to your advantage.

A standout tip from our course: never go into an interview “to inform.” You go in to influence. That means identifying your key messages in advance, preparing memorable soundbites, and bridging from questions to answers with control and authenticity.

We teach a technique called "message sandwiching" – starting with a confident statement, giving a short supporting example, then repeating your key point. It helps you stay on track and gives the journalist exactly what they need – clean, concise quotes.

We also cover crisis communication – how to protect your reputation when the story turns negative. This includes how to stay calm under pressure, avoid being misquoted, and communicate transparency without exposing your organisation to unnecessary risk.

Whether it’s a primetime broadcast, podcast guest spot or internal media piece, our course prepares you to speak with clarity, credibility and composure.

In today’s digital-first world, media opportunities can arise fast – and they don’t always happen face-to-face. Whether you’re asked to join a live podcast, a Zoom interview, or a broadcast via Teams, the ability to present yourself well on camera is vital. Our Media Training Course Online is designed to help professionals deliver clear, confident and compelling media performances from anywhere in the world.

This virtual course mirrors our in-person coaching, with one major difference: we train you in the exact environment you’ll appear in. That means practising on Zoom, learning where to look on screen, managing your setup, lighting and background, and mastering eye-line for maximum impact.

A common mistake people make online is staring at themselves on the screen, rather than the camera. We help you reposition your gaze, so you appear confident, present and trustworthy. We also teach how to manage nerves and think on your feet – essential for handling tough questions or unexpected turns.

Our online media training covers everything from messaging and key soundbites to body language, voice control and crisis comms. The format is flexible – we offer one-to-one sessions or group training depending on your needs.

Clients often say this course transforms not just how they perform on screen, but how they feel. With the right training, even the most camera-shy professionals can develop a warm, authentic and authoritative media presence – all without leaving home.

Public speaking is one of the most valuable skills in business, yet it's also one of the most feared. Our public speaking and presentation course is designed to help you overcome nerves and learn how to connect with any audience.

The fear of speaking often comes from uncertainty – what to say, how to say it, and whether people will listen. That’s why our training focuses on preparation and confidence. We help you build structure into your talk, so you always know where you’re going. We coach you to breathe well and use your voice with energy, not volume.

One useful tip is to practice your opening out loud, multiple times. Your first 30 seconds matter the most – that’s when the audience decides if they’ll pay attention. A strong start, with clarity and eye contact, sets the tone for everything that follows.

We also explore how to deal with nerves in the moment. Instead of trying to “get rid” of them, we show you how to channel nervous energy into positive performance. Confidence isn’t about pretending you’re not nervous – it’s about performing well in spite of it.

Leaders are expected to communicate vision, drive change and influence others – often with little formal training in how to actually present well. That’s where our presentation skills for leaders course comes in. It’s about more than just what you say. It’s about how you lead the room.

Great leadership starts with presence. One simple but powerful technique is to pause before you speak. It builds gravitas, shows control, and instantly makes the audience listen. We also coach leaders to be aware of posture and movement – standing still when making a key point, and using purposeful gestures to emphasise ideas.

We also explore how to structure content for maximum impact. Leaders often overwhelm people with data. Instead, we teach how to lead with the “why”, and how to use storytelling to bring strategy to life. Storytelling isn’t soft – it’s one of the most powerful leadership tools you can use.

Whether you lead a team of five or five hundred, our course will help you engage people with more clarity, connection, and confidence.

A one-size-fits-all approach rarely works when it comes to communication. That’s why our bespoke presentation skills course is designed around you – your goals, your challenges, your audience. Whether you’re presenting at a team meeting, client pitch, or industry conference, the way you show up can make all the difference.

We start by understanding your natural communication style and building from there. Our training helps you find your voice, clarify your message, and connect with authenticity. A bespoke course means you’ll get specific help where it counts – whether that’s body language, storytelling, or how to handle Q&A with ease.

One key tip we always teach is to avoid starting with slides. Build your narrative first. What’s your message? What do you want the audience to feel or do? Once you know that, visuals become a support tool, not the presentation itself.

With our tailored coaching, you’ll walk away with tools that work for your personality, not a rehearsed script. We can also give you access to filming and playback, so you can see the transformation in real time.

Nerves are normal. Even the most experienced speakers feel them. It’s your body’s way of preparing you for something important. But nerves don’t have to control you. With the right tools, you can channel that energy and walk into your talk with focus and clarity.

The first thing is to breathe. Proper breathing grounds you. It slows your heart rate and helps you stay calm. Before you speak, take a few steady breaths in through your nose, and out through your mouth. Keep it slow and even. This tells your body you’re safe.

Next, reframe the nerves. Instead of thinking of them as fear, try to see them as excitement. The same adrenaline rush that makes you anxious is the one that sharpens your mind and gives you presence. Tell yourself it’s your body getting ready to perform.

Preparation also plays a huge role. The more prepared you are, the more secure you’ll feel. That means knowing your message, not just memorising your lines. If you understand your core points and know where you're going, you’ll feel more confident even if you get thrown a curveball.

Finally, focus on the audience, not yourself. Nervous speakers often go inward, worrying about how they look or sound. Shift your attention outward. Think about the people in front of you. What do they need? What will help them? That simple shift makes a huge difference.

At Presenter Studio, we work with clients to turn nerves into confidence. Public speaking doesn’t have to be scary – it can be a space where you shine. Learn how in our full course at https://www.presenterstudio.com/business-presenter-training/presentation-skills-training
