Workshops
At Marmalade, we create bespoke speaker training workshops. We use our background in TV News to challenge and - we hope - to inspire. Everyone is recorded on camera multiple times, we review their performances and give constructive feedback. Our workshops are full of practical advice that can be applied from the moment we finish. We also offer media training workshops on request.
Who Is It For?
Established Teams
Tired of presenting the same information in the same way on repeat? Our workshops that help challenge and refresh the status quo with new ideas and practical tips. We can give you the space to try doing things differently and encourage a different culture around presenting.
New Teams
We help new teams build a strong foundation in confident speaking and presenting. Our workshops not only develop individual communication skills but also help participants discover each other’s strengths so they can be used to best effect going forward.
What Do We Typically Cover?
Preparation
We look at the best ways to prepare that work for you, take the stress out of getting ready and set you up for success.
Structuring Your Content
Turn complex ideas into clear, compelling messages. We’ll show you how to organise your content in a way that connects—whether you’re online or in the room.
Storytelling Techniques
Discover how to use storytelling in whatever industry you work in and how to craft stories that stick.
Focus not Overload
How to ensure you have the right balance of content and don’t overfill your presentations.
Slides and Visuals
How your slides or visuals should support you, not overwhelm you.
Visual Tecniques
Master confident body language – stance, hand gestures, facial expressions, eye contact and energy.
Vocal Techniques
Make your voice work for you – learn how to use pace, pause, tone, and emphasis to engage and influence your audience.
On-Camera Review
In every session we’ll get you on camera delivering some of your content. We will watch it back together and give constructive feedback. It's the single best way to learn and improve.
What To Wear
From stage to screen, your outfit matters. We’ll advise on what distracts, what works and how to stand out.
