HP Hood, an American dairy company, recently contracted Baker Communications to deliver an Exceptional Presentations training workshop for staff in their headquarters of Lynnfield, MA. Hood was looking for a course to help their staff improve their presentation skills. During their search for a reputable training vendor, they discovered Baker's Exceptional Presentations course and were thrilled with the robust training content and the video coaching sessions - a powerful tool for real-time feedback and benchmarking that makes it easy to track progress and areas for growth. Hood was also excited about Baker's online gamification experience, which provides continuous reinforcement to increase retention. Hood was happy to find a training partner so focused on producing results, and Baker was happy to find an enthusiastic new client!
A Senior-Level Instructor and Presentations Expert from Baker Communications traveled to Lynnfield to deliver the training workshop. During this highly interactive training experience, the group gained experience using proven, time-tested public speaking techniques, such as the Four P's of vocal quality (Projection, Pauses, Pacing and Pitch), to keep their presentations lively and engaging while maintaining authority and exercising control. In the video coaching portion, participants received individual feedback from their instructors after recording presentations during strategic points throughout the session. These recording-and-coaching sessions allowed attendees to gauge their own progress and see areas needing improvement, as well as benefit from expert feedback and individual coaching.
