Engineers, do you want to learn public speaking skills?
It is a shame that a good idea can fail for a lack of communication or courage.
Every presentation… every conversation… has what I call "an infinite upside potential".
Every life-changing moment in a person's life can point to a conversation as the catalyst.
No new technology has ever succeeded until it passed through through a series of presentations with stakeholders, investors, the Board, etc.
But many of us speak only to survive our nerves, and not to seize the infinite upside potential inherent in every opportunity to speak.
If communication makes or breaks engineers, why does no one try to consciously improve these skills?
This is where you can get ahead of 99% of the population.
Great ideas delivered poorly is perceived as poor content. But great ideas delivered well is the key to unlocking the infinite upside potential available in every presentation or conversation.
Tom Hendrick, named in the Top Ten List of Best Public Speaking Coaches in Australia & New Zealand, is here to teach you the public speaking and Q&A skills to win the series of talks standing between you and your goals.
Engineers, this is how you get better at presenting.
To measure and guarantee your improvement as a speaker, Tom Hendrick applies the Fitts and Posner Model of Skill Acquisition .
In your first free session, Tom Hendrick will provide you with his award-winning materials on Audience-Centric Communication for Engineers. His materials include:
A 30+ page booklet (with lots of diagrams) that explains key concepts and includes activities you can do at home and any anytime you present or have a conversation.
Access to an AI Roleplay Software that measures your progress and is trained to give you feedback based on my content and your specific goals.
A guarantee that in 4x 1 hour tailored coaching sessions you will reach a measurably Autonomous Stage of effortless professional communication.
In your 4x 1 hour sessions, Tom Hendrick will:
help you climb the skill acquisition curve all the way up to the Autonomous Stage, where speaking professionally is effortless and becomes a permanent lifelong ability.
provide you with lots of demonstrations, AI Roleplays and activities to improve your skills.
provide you with professional and recorded feedback.
increase the difficulty of each activity to match your progress.
How do we guarantee your speaking skills will improve?
Your first session is free: no risk in trying before buying.
We can improve what we can measure.
Tom Hendrick’s unique approach to communication training isn’t about “feeling more confident”, it’s about measuring what confidence and good communication looks like.
Your ability to speak well against increasingly difficult AI Personas will be measured. You will be exposed to realistic scenarios that will get your heart beating fast so you can adapt to pressure.
Your rate of speaking will be measured. This lets you see how and when bad habits happen, so you can self-correct during the speech (not after).
Your word choice will be measured. This lets you see if you’re using the audience-centric skills as good as you possibly can, and what you need to specifically work on to improve in your 4x 1 hour sessions.
All of these metrics and more are testing in your first free session, and you can also test them yourself in your own time.
Is communication coaching expensive?
No. Tom Hendrick’s mission is to make sure you receive good communication skills for life for a competitive price.
Here’s how it works:
First coaching session is free. You receive lots of free materials. You also get instructions on how to coach yourself in your copy of the Audience-centric Communication Booklet.
The next 4x 1 hour coaching sessions are AUD$395 each (includes GST). If you reach your goal early, you can stop at any time without paying for unused sessions.
Out of your price range? Let’s trade. In exchange for coaching, I am open to receiving testimonials and introductions. These are valuable to me.
Once we get you to the promised Autonomous Phase, you should have these communication skills for life. This means your chances of getting promoted or funding your idea should be significantly higher. Your new found communication skills will more than pay for themselves well into the future.
