    Rehearse your opening, your structure and your closing ask out loud, and get feedback on what you actually said.

    Watch: the Presentation Skills programme

    Who it's for.

    • Senior leaders and executives

    • Technical leads

      Experts who need to turn complex data into a message that builds trust and keeps the room engaged.

    • For you

      Practise the conversations in this pathway and receive feedback on what you actually said.

    • For your organisation

      Build evidence around the conversations your people need to handle, with aggregate-only reporting.

    What the programme teaches.

    The gap between a good idea and a yes is how you deliver it. Dr Claire Dale's programme pairs Physical Intelligence with a clear message structure.

    • Openings and closing asks

      Practise an opening that tells the room why to listen, and a close that asks for a clear decision.

    • Rehearse the questions you dread

      Practise answering challenging questions and objections out loud before the meeting, not during it.

    • Prepare with Dr Claire Dale

      Sessions cover breath, posture and voice as preparation. Feedback is on what you said, not how you sounded.

    Physical Intelligence

    • Body, breath, voice and mind

      The four elements of Physical Intelligence, practised as preparation so nerves don't get in the way of the message.

    • The Winning Cocktail

      Claire's model of the body chemistry behind rapport and confidence, and the simple physical habits that shift it.

    • Functional equivalence

      Mental rehearsal that runs through the real performance in advance, so the habits are in place before you walk in.

    Message structure

    • The ABCD opening

      A repeatable structure for the first 60 seconds that gets attention and shows why you're worth hearing.

    • Action-benefit closings

      End on a structured ask for a concrete commitment instead of a thank-you slide.

    • Prepare, Ask, Explain, Agree

      A model for handling hard questions and objections without losing the room.

    Questions

    Participants practise the workplace conversations mapped to this programme.

    Feedback is tied to observable behavioural markers in the conversation transcript.

    Managers see engagement; capability reporting is aggregate-only above an agreed minimum group size.

    Your framework can remain the standard and be mapped to the moments where capability must become observable.
