The following presentations are interactive and humorous. Use of a visual aid is required by some but not all.
Some of the presentations work better with a smaller audience, while others are absolutely right for any number. Some are more suited to seminars and conferences whereas others fit more easily into informal events.
Please note ALL of the presentions can be tailored or combined to complement YOUR event ...simply by completing the questionnaire!
[1] ' HANDWRITING PSYCHOLOGY'
An utterly fascinating look at the analysis of writing. This interactive talk takes the audience on a stroll from the ways our writing changes when we are under duress, all the way to investigating the depths of the mind of the serial killer. Includes the opportunity for every member of the audience to take a look at what their own writing reveals. Astounding graphics and a wealth of humour.
NOTE: This presentation can be in three forms [A] A 45/60 minute talk, [B] A half day workshop and [C] A full day workshop. |
[2] ' RIGHT BRAIN/LEFT BRAIN?' An amazing lecture during which every member of the audience builds up an accurate profile of their natural strengths and weaknesses. A presentation designed to help participants kick-start the creative side of their thinking. Hilarious antics plus inspiring revelations.
|
| [3] 'LIAR, LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE!' an intriguing look at the subject of lying. Includes how to avoid being lied to and how to spot someone intent upon deceiving! |
| [4] ' GETTING A GRIP!' A three pronged attack on that insidious enemy STRESS. Designed to help each member of the audience turn stress into motivation by utilising some fascinating techniques! Some intriguing giveaways for every member of the audience. |
| [5] ' OODLES OF DOODLES ' Every member of the audience fills out a doodle sheet .. and then discovers just how much they have revealed about EVERY aspect of their lives! |
| [6] ' MANIPULATION' A very topical presentation encompassing a variety of frauds including identity theft. An absolute mind boggling demonstration of just how easily it is for even the most intelligent and sceptical person to be convinced that black is white! This intriguing talk includes the wherewithal of defending yourself and, in some cases, (quite delightfully) getting your own back! |
[7] ' I NEARLY DIED!!! ' A real MUST for aspiring speakers! How to develop a contingency plan that will ensure that your presentation is enjoyed by the speaker as well as the audience! Illustrated by personal anecdotes that will make your hair curl ....FROM an event in Harrogate [no less] where two of the audience spent an active half hour under their table, to finding the door of the venue locked with me outside in the rain and the audience inside in the dry (wondering what had happened to the speaker!) Plus such nuggets how NOT to cope in a hostage situation and how it feels to lecture to a room full of convicted psychopaths.... before you embark on a career as speaker this is the one talk you should not miss! Excellent free handouts.

[8] A MIND PROVOKING 'AWAY-DAY' [AND/OR ENTERTAINMENT FOR AN ENTIRE AFTERNOON, FULL DAY OR EVENING] Hours of unsurpassable insights and humour as the audience are taken on a leisurely stroll through the landscapes of their own minds - with some fascinating and unforgettable detours. Punctuated by laughter and open mouthed surprise, each member of the audience gets to know the most fascinating person in the world .. themselves!!! Includes team assessment, team building and individual personality profiling. Completely lacking in humiliation, this is an entertaining and positive experience!

(see also the Reports section) . |
but first please tell me what you want...
ALL of my presentations contain humour and require a varying degree of audience participation; SOME require the use of visual projection and MOST can be adapted and/or combined to suit virtually any occasion. To tailor the presentation to the event it is necessary to know as much as possible about the occasion, so to enable me to decide the most appropriate content for your talk please print out the questionnaire, then complete all relevant details and send it to me ASAP.
The questionnaire is designed to fit most eventualities. It is entirely confidential and will be used for no other purpose than to ensure that the chosen talk will fit to perfection. No copies will be made and the completed questionnaire will not be retained. When you complete the questionnaire you may find some of the questions to be entirely irrelevant to your event ...but answering whichever questions apply will help 'tailor' the presentation to the event and therefore go a long way to make the occasion even more of a success!
NOTE: All of the talks are humorous and interactive; but if you think the audience are likely to become so inebriated that they will be unable comprehend what is being said, let alone join in ...then just maybe the most appropriate entertainment will not be a speaker.....
NEW IDEA: I am pleased to offer a new service that has grown out of requests for me to go into a company and work directly with staff. This can work in two ways ...I can do an interactive presentation during which everyone builds up their own profile OR I can work with individuals throughout the day ...doing one-to-one assessments.

REMEMBER THIS.... There are three fears that most people suffer at one time or another. The third worst fear is - PUBLIC SPEAKING. The second worst fear is - DYING. But the worst fear of all is - DYING WHILE SPEAKING IN PUBLIC [....sniffle] |
