The workshop was just full of tips and tricks I never would have come up with by myself. It’s the only workshop I’ve attended that I would 100% recommend, every word she said was a golden nugget of wisdom."Doirann Gordon, PhD Student, University of Edinburgh“The moment Mel walks into the room, it is clear that she practices what she preaches. She is authentic, interactive and worked constructively and with clarity to improve my style. I attended Mel’s workshops and spent a number of 1:1 coaching sessions with Mel working on a specific pitch, then on my general pitching technique. This coaching has made sharing complex information much clearer, I deliver it with more confidence and I sound more credible. Attending Mel’s workshops and 1:1 coaching is undoubtedly the single best personal development I have done to benefit my business & career.”Pete Thomson, CEO & Founder, KMSoft LtdIf you'd like to check out what other people have said about coaching and training with Mel, there are over 100 testimonials on LinkedIn, which you can read at https://www.linkedin.com/in/melsherwood/ABOUT THE TRAINERMel Sherwood is a Presentation Skills and Personal Impact Speaker, Founder of The RED Effect™ and Author of ‘The Authority Guide to Pitching Your Business: How to make an impact and be remembered - in under a minute!’ She works with global business leaders, teams and individuals who want to be more confident, credible and compelling.
