What Serco plc says:
The course was incredibly helpful. For me, you really helped with the formatting and pitch of a speech, as well as being aware of my body language. There are some courses that you enjoy attending, but can’t really recall the content once a few months have passed. Due to your effective delivery style, the Public Speaking course is one of the few courses where I have been able to apply the lessons learned during and afterwards on a constant basis, so thank you again

What Five Arrows Leasing says:
If anyone thinks that any form of public speaking should not be treated seriously, just think David Davies or Gerald Ratner. John Major was not too hot either. So I decided to invest in a day with Brian and surprise surprise, like most things in life, if you actually understand what you are doing, the finished product is better.

What British Biotech says:
I found our day together very enjoyable. Your analysis of what makes a talk memorable, and how to structure one with this objective in mind, was very useful; the techniques we ran through (supplemented at the end of the day by the manual) were valuable reference points, and I thought that you adopted the right, informal tone for a day’s coaching.

What Staffordshire Civil Contingencies Unit says:
We hired Brian to coach the Staffordshire Civil Contingencies Unit's staff in effective presentation skills. Brian was a complete star and I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone who needs one-to-one or team-based coaching in public speaking and/or presentation skils. Brian did an initial day with the team, after which he produced a DVD for each participant which contained his own commentary on key areas for improvement...but not just generic areas, areas that were specific to the individual. My staff still talk about Brian's course and only the other day a member of the team was heard evaluating a presentation in a way that Brian would have been proud of. If you want to bring something specal to your team that will add lasting value (and have you splitting your sides in the process), give Brian a call. He also has a book out which is absolutely priceless if presenting and speaking is your thing
