Presentation Coaching

Is it your goal to raise your next presentation to a whole new level? Would you like to receive individual tips and test your presentation with a sparring partner? Or do you prefer long-term personal development with repeated coaching sessions?

In all cases, one-to-one or group coaching would be your choice. We arrange dates and duration individually and, depending on time flexibility, also at short notice. In-person meetings are an option, as are online or alternating meetings.

You can choose between a one-time appointment or several coaching sessions. We can also combine both online and in-person meetings.

Outdoor Coaching

Do you prefer open-air coaching rather than meeting in an office or online? Coaching in the park, sitting on a bench, or during a walk is a suitable alternative. You can, of course, also test your presentation outdoors. Video recordings with detailed analyses are also possible upon request.

Online Coaching

You can also take advantage of online coaching instead of face-to-face meetings. Whether your presentation is live or online: Get all the information you need, regardless of location, on Zoom, Cisco WebEx, MS Teams, BigBlueButton, or any other platform you choose.

Between the online appointments, input quickies are also possible using online chats, WhatsApp, e-mail, or telephone, depending on the agreement.

Feedback for your Live Performance

Your pulse beats faster in the original speech and the setting is completely different from a training session. Upon request, I would be ready to join your live talk. Whether it is an internal meeting, a symposium, or an international congress, offline or online, Based on a detailed presentation analysis, you will receive precise feedback on your presentation promptly at a personal coaching appointment.

Please get in touch with me for further details.

The most unusual coaching so far was during a bus excursion through Iran.

Video Analyses

Video analyses are the core of many 1:1 one-on-one coaching sessions. I am happy to analyze your talk in detail. You can send your video recording beforehand and receive detailed written feedback, or we can record your test presentation during the coaching session.

You will receive precise feedback on all aspects of your presentation that are important to you. We agree on the duration and intensity of the video analyses individually. You will receive all video recordings immediately after each coaching session.

Here are two examples of video analyses of TED Talks:

Simon Sinek: How great leaders inspire action

Hans Rosling: The best stats you’ve ever seen & Steve Jobs: Stanford Commencement Address

Stephen is a highly skilled coach on public speaking, with a special focus on professional speeches.

I’m working together with Stephen for several years and highly benefited from Stephen’s advice.

He combines his background as a university researcher with his speaking skills, which leads to an unusual, but highly effective mix of knowledge.

Ich kenne Dr. Stephen Wagner seit 2014. Stephen hat mir in vielen Feedback-Gesprächen hilfreiche und sehr konkrete Anregungen für meine Präsentationen gegeben. Die Qualität meiner Vorträge hat sich dadurch entscheidend verbessert, sei es dank seiner Hinweise auf Sprachstil und klare Formulierung oder zur nonverbalen Kommunikation. Hierzu gehören auch die verbesserte Bühnenpräsenz und besonders sein Feedback über das Zusammenspiel zwischen Körpersprache, Tonalität und richtig gesetzten Pausen.

Seine Unterstützung hat einen großen Anteil dazu beigetragen, dass meine Vorträge für die Zuhörer angenehmer und leichter zu verstehen sind. Durch unsere gemeinsame Zeit, in mehreren Einzelterminen, fällt es mir leicht meine Komfortzone zu verlassen. So war es für mich klar, dass ich bei einem Redner-Event als Zielredner erstmals auch vor großem Publikum spreche. Neuen Herausforderungen sehe ich heute gelassen entgegen.

Aus eigener Erfahrung kann ich Herrn Dr. Stephen Wagner bestens für Einzelcoachings empfehlen.
