Testimonials

The course is extremely well designed to facilitate learners to grasp with the concepts and progressive introduction to complications. Very well thought out!
I really liked the practise sessions where we applied the tools that we just learnt. It was tough, though.
Interaction with different attendees, the groups were mixed so we were able to work with almost everyone in the room. The instructor was very knowledgeable, lively and kept the class interesting. Also had a wealth of real life experience to share with us.

Frequently Asked Questions!

  • How is Think on Your Feet different from presentation skills?

    Think on Your Feet is for 90% of the communication we have at work - impromptu and in the moment. The thinking process to speak with structure with little or no preparation time is different from when making a presentation.

  • Who is the ideal target participant for this programme?

    Anyone! We have worked with C-level participants to individual contributors. In some organisations, it's a perfect fit for technical professionals to help them articulate technical information and be understood. It's a critical skill for leaders as they progress in the organisation. If you need teams to speak in the moment with Clarity, Brevity and Impact, then they need Think on Your Feet skills.

  • When is Think on Your Feet not suitable?

    When there is no opportunity to put the skills into practice post-programme. Or when the culture of the organisation isn't suited for team members sharing their points of view.
