POST-PROGRAM FEEDBACK
“ I believe the framing of a presentation is very useful, it gives me a structured way to approach my topics and convey information in a way that sticks with the audience. ”
“ The whole message is what I needed. I had bits and pieces, but didn't know how to put it all together. I am confident that with practice I will shine when presenting and getting buy in from stakeholders. A wonderful addition to my professional ‘tool belt.’ ”
“ Really a helpful training, one of the best I have participated in where relevant feedback and coaching were provided in real time with opportunity to incorporate. The Seydways team’s experience and expertise in this space + their working knowledge of our company’s culture was impactful. ”
“ I found the ideas on how to move away from relying on a slide deck and focusing instead on how to make my ideas specific and meaningful to the prospect or customer illuminating, as well as how to use the slides more impactfully. I felt I was controlling the deck rather than the other way around. ”
“ Overall, the training was extremely valuable in helping build my confidence for virtual presentations. It was a great opportunity to practice with a group, and develop more ‘psychological safety’ amongst peers as each day of training progressed. I felt engaged, and the training felt personalized. I appreciate that our company invested in developing skillsets that will benefit us throughout our careers. ”
“ It was surprising how powerful it was when my fellow participants told stories using the guidelines the Seydways team provided. From now on I will include relevant stories to heighten engagement and bring home the key points. ”
“ Beyond the content of the training, perhaps the most valuable thing I got out of this experience was the way in which feedback was delivered to us by the Seydways team. Their style was honest, constructive and thoughtful, often helping us see the positives in our challenges. I really enjoyed the training and l’m grateful for the opportunity to have participated in it. I feel that the skills that I learned will be useful for the rest of my life. ”
