Use Notes, Not Scripts: The Secret to Confident Speaking
As soon as I saw him open the leather portfolio he had laid on the podium, I could feel my eyelids getting heavier. The CEO looked down at his script and read, “Good morning. It’s great to be with you.” And the rest sailed over the audience because by the time he had...
From Data to Dialogue: 5 Steps to Transform Numbers into Narratives in Presentations

Client Testimonials
My first presentation to a customer after learning Presentation Transformation resulted in a major WIN. The training really paid off. It was surprisingly easy to incorporate the approach and storytelling into a complex sales presentation.
I really enjoyed the entire program, and found participating very valuable. I’m “new” in a variety of ways – new to the organization, new to this kind of role – so I have had to get pretty comfortable being uncomfortable. For me, the practicality of the method you taught us was refreshing. So often, especially in this industry, most training is jargon-heavy, theory-heavy, etc. and it was so nice to be able to absorb the method and then apply it easily.
I give quarterly town hall sessions with all our employees (700+). The story approach Gerry teaches allows me to adapt to the audience and grab them with something they relate. The stories Gerry’s approach helps me craft helps my people understand why we have to operate a business running at Mach 1 vs: 80 mph—and how to do it! The program concepts are awesome and easy to apply!
