The Soft Skill Success Story
I’m Maureen McCowen, the founder of Soft Skill Success.
I have seen how the fear of speaking in public has held people back in their business and in their careers. I am here to offer you the tools to Unlock Speaking Confidence.
I believe that confidence can be tapped into, and can be unlocked by surrounding ourselves with the right people. People who support, encourage and recognise our achievements. That is what I offer to my clients. With my personalised one-to-one workshops, team training and masterclasses, public speaking moves from a common fear to a core asset.
Public speaking anxiety is common. But the art of public speaking can be mastered with some personalised and efficient training sessions. Confident communication is a skill that you or your team can enjoy acquiring and then applying
My range of communication training services may be broad – but the focus is sharp.
I know that the fear of public speaking can be paralysing – that the mere thought of speaking out, can make you crumble.
My focus is to take that paralysing fear out of communication and give you the tools to flourish as a public speaker.
Whether it is a sixty-second pitch or a sixty-minute talk, your presentation is your opportunity to connect with the audience and make an impact with your message.
Working with me, you will follow a structured approach that will enable you to communicate your message clearly, confidently and professionally.
Working with individuals and teams
I help both individuals and teams. I love to see the dramatic impact of my communication and presentation skills courses – how, within just a short time, participants gain confidence and start applying the skills they’ve learned.
I’ll help you to make a pitch at a networking event, create a speech or presentation that, not only promotes your point of view, your product or your service, but also reflects your ‘voice’ – your unique personality. I’ll teach you how to control your nerves and gain more confidence in your delivery.
I look forward to working with you – to seeing you unlock your speaking confidence, present with clarity and without pressure.
