JEFF COHEN PRESENTS SEMINARS & PRIVATE VOICE COUNSELING DESIGNEDTO ENHANCE EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION INTRODUCTION: Your voice is your primary link to everyone you do business with. Consider your potential: To move every person in your audience To compel, through your words, all to sit up and take notice To be confident in your ability to hold and persuade your listener(s), every time you speak From the world of professional voice coaching for actors, come seminars and private coaching to meet the needs of business people - from executive managers, to sales and marketing representatives to public relations officers and more. The essence of what you will learn is this: to rivet your target audience with your voice. When there is an integration of the musculature of breathing with a strong desire to communicate, the result will be an effective, expressive, and compelling voice. Reach far beyond your basic presentation skills. Immediate Results of The Compelling Voice: 1. ENHANCED COMMUNICATION In our training sessions, we use guideposts to give color, variety and richness to our clients' voices. Without training, public speakers run the risk of sounding dry and dull in their speech patterns. Warmth, resonance, conviction, spontaneity (being open to impulse and being in the moment), and humor are a few of the relevant guideposts in working to strengthen your communication skills. 2. ENHANCED SALES If you're a Sales Manager, Team Leader or Middle Manager who is responsible for leading and motivating the performance of a sales force, you and your sales staff need this training. You will use these skills daily; you will use them constantly; and you will see the sales performance of your team improve dramatically. 3. ENHANCED PERSUASIVENESS Your persuasiveness is the key to your successful communication either in the boardroom, the conference room, or the sales meeting. Now you can use the skills that actors learn to persuade and to compel. Think about a dramatic scene: a lawyer in a courtroom addressing a jury or a policeman interrogating a suspect. It is an actor’s role to effect change to persuade the listener to believe in his or her side of the argument. As a business professional, you want the same thing. If the speaker is convinced of his or her material, then the listener will be. Through an empowered and centered voice, your sales pitches and presentations will be irresistible. 4. ENHANCED COMFORT AND EASE One of the essentials in voice training is relaxation. When there is excessive tension, the mind and body can literally shut down. Through focused breathing, nervousness is not only abated, but properly channeled to both relax and energize the mind, body - and the voice.
