Today's business environment is probably the most complex and challenging it has ever been. Professionals can provide themselves with a powerful competitive edge by being a compelling, effective and authentic communicator.

Addressing the areas of immersion listening, nonverbal communication, verbal expression, written expression, speech improvement and accent reduction can increase your professional growth, improve your business relationships as well as your "bottom line".

Speech Improvement Resources' communication coaching includes:

Immersion Listening

"Immersion listening" is a style that includes using appropriate eye contact, affirmative body language and facial expressions and receiving others messages with empathy and without pre-conclusion. This does not mean one has to agree with the message, but just being open to receive it. The "immersion listening" style is foundational to build trusted relationships.

Nonverbal Communication

Nonverbal communication is an extremely powerful tool.   The appropriate use body language, eye contact, pacing, pausing, as well as vocal volume, tone and intonation can make an individual's communication significantly more effective.  Authentic nonverbal communication can improve delivering presentations, negotiating, interacting with clients and colleagues as well selling and improving closure rates.

Verbal Expression

Speaking clearly and concisely is vital for your professional success.  The most effective marketing tactics for your business are your daily opportunities to interact with others.  Those opportunities will have more impact if you present yourself and your business using compelling, effective communication. It's essential for your success.

Presentation Skills

Your ability to deliver a presentation effectively is vital.  Our communication coaching teaches you effective body language, vocal tone and intonation skills, and compelling and effective delivery of your message whether it be a client proposal, team meeting or a professional speaking opportunity.

Interviewing Skills

In today's competitive job market, the interview is typically the deciding factor whether or not an offer is extended to you.  Effective and compelling communication skills are foundational to your interview success.  Putting the time and effort into improving your communication skills will impact your results.

Telephone Communication Skills

Have you considered the impact that your telephone communication skills has on your business?  These skills are more challenging than face to face interactions but just as important. Because the elements of body language, eye contact and facial expressions are not available to use when on the telephone, effective telephone skills i.e., initial interviews, voice mail messages and conference calls  may be the only chance to make an impression.

Business Writing Skills

Even though writing skills do not seem to be as much of a priority as in years past, they are essential to be an accomplished communicator.  Whether the task is writing a client proposal, an internal document, an e-mail, or a contribution to social media, it is important that effort and attention to detail are used.

Speaking Improvement

If your speech seems to be mumbled or not as "clear"as you would like it to be, speaking improvement coaching is an option for you.

Accent Reduction

Accent reduction is intended to increase speech clarity for speakers of English as a second language.  It is not intended to eliminate the individual’s accent. Through assessment, goal-setting and daily client practice, accent reduction can be achieved.  The  results of accent reduction can include improved client and colleague interactions, productivity as well as increased self-confidence.
