Professional Speaker and Trainer, Geraldine Barkworth will travel to your premises or event location.

Presentations and Workshops are specifically for corporate organisations, academic institutions and government agencies wanting to offer specialised personal and professional growth training in the area of metacommunications. Presentations are suitable for mid to senior level staff who need to communicate with authenticity, professionalism and impact to build trust-based long term relationships.

(Corporate speaking and training is not available for individual registration. Please talk to your HR Director or Events Manager about your interest in hiring Goddess Of Public Speaking for onsite speaking and training.)

Our Presentations and Workshops are about Metacommunications – talking about talking – and Individuation – the individual’s growth path toward wholeness.

Workshops can be delivered as half, one or multi day events. Many suit delivery occurring over several weeks or months to give participants time to integrate, practice in the “real world” and report experiences back.

Please be assured…

Don’t worry, no one will be put on the spot and asked to give a 20 minute talk about  the death of their first pet. In fact, your level of participation is up to you. We will be working individually, in pairs, small groups and be doing lots of deep listening, speaking, experiencing, written and spoken exercises and some fun body-stuff. Springboard templates and lots of practical examples are provided for workshops which concern creating content. Be assured, there will always be enough chocolate to go around.

Currently, Goddess Of Public Speaking Workshops explore the following topics:

Overcoming public speaking fear and avoidance, facilitating groups and workshops, leadership presence and speaking influence, finding one’s unique voice, speaking with impact not boredom, communicating with body language and voice, crafting content, work life balance for overachievers, meditation for people who can’t meditate.

Presentations are tailored to each organisation and event to “hit the nail on the head” every time.

The Facilitator, Geraldine Barkworth, works with the organisational representative to understand how to seamlessly weave in in-house issues, languaging and case studies.

• Pre-Presentation work in the form of Questionnaires, Surveys or Interviews are designed to engage participants and identify burning issues.
• Speeches are mostly 60 minutes. Workshops are mostly in a one day format. They can be easily modified to half or multiple days. For long term benefits and sustainable change, we find that delivering training as a series of half days spread over weeks and months, reinforced by online training and individual coaching creates the best results.
• Training methodology can include: presentations from the facilitator, individual exercises, pair work and small group activities, written, verbal and experiential exercises, interactive games, personal reflection and planning. We work with the values of safety, choice, trust, creativity, empowerment, balance and authenticity.
• Post-Presentation work in the form of questionnaires, evaluations or follow up online seminars and individual coaching reinforce learning and increase behavioural change, personal awareness, organisational engagement and ownership of new ideas.

Geraldine’s Presentations are usually a blend of speaking and training. She’s a “workshoppy kind of speaker.” You can specify your preference depending upon your event needs. Sometimes one delivery style is better than the other.

Training

The cost of a one day workshop or presentation to your organisation will be in the range of $1800 – $2,500, depending upon participant numbers and level of customisation. Travel expenses are additional. Ideal participant numbers begin at 6 and end at 36. Most workshops are run with 20 or less participants. Higher numbers mean less personal interaction and instruction. Lower numbers mean much more hands on interaction and thus increased opportunities for learning and change. One day Workshops can be modified to half and multi-days to suit the organisation and participants.

Speaking

Speaking Presentations usually range from 60-90 minutes. The cost range is $1,000 – $2,000, depending upon your requirements.
