Public Speaking Training for Teams
Most of our work is with organisations, training their people in-house. We come to you anywhere in the UK or internationally, or work virtually, and build it around the presentations and pitches your team has coming up.
This isn’t off-the-shelf training with your logo on it. Every participant completes a short questionnaire beforehand, so we know their strengths and challenges before we walk into the room.
Whether you call it public speaking or presentation skills training, your team will learn to structure their thinking, stay composed under pressure and present to senior people and clients with real impact.
One-Day Public Speaking Course in London
If your organisation doesn’t run in-house training, or you work for yourself, you can join one of our open courses in London.
We keep groups to around six, so you won’t spend the day watching others. You’ll speak, get honest feedback and speak again, working on the situations you actually face. For more personal support, our public speaking coaching offers one-to-one guidance.
£495 + VAT per person (£594 inc. VAT)

What Changes After Our Training
Whether we’re training a whole team or you’re joining an open course, the difference shows up quickly, in the very next meeting, pitch or presentation.
Thinking stays clear under pressure
Instead of second-guessing every word, the people we train learn to organise their thoughts quickly and say what they mean, even when the stakes are high and senior people are listening.
Messages become easy to follow
Ideas are shaped so they flow and stay on track, landing with the kind of clarity that makes people lean in rather than switch off. No rushing, no over-explaining, no losing the thread.
Presentations lead to decisions
When a message is clear and the speaker sounds like themselves, people don’t just listen, they act on it. That’s when presenting stops being a performance and becomes a way to influence, lead and move things forward.

Why Capable People Struggle Under Pressure
Many public speaking courses focus on technique: managing nerves, projecting your voice. Those things matter, but they rarely hold when the pressure is real, because what gets in the way usually isn’t technique.
It’s the voice in your head that has been running the show for years, judging, second-guessing and performing before you’ve even opened your mouth. When the stakes rise, it gets louder. Pace increases, clarity slips, and even very capable professionals find themselves rushing, over-explaining or losing their thread.
Every one of those patterns can be changed. That’s where our training starts.
For those whose biggest challenge is nerves and anxiety, our Speak Without Fear programme offers deeper, focused support.
What clients say
“Thank you for that brilliant, entertaining and very valuable course. I had a few presentation trainings but none of them has been even comparable with yours.”
Nina Buckner, FP&A
What Audiences Actually Respond To
Audiences don’t respond to perfection. They respond to presence.
When your message is clear, your delivery is calm and your attention is on the people in front of you rather than on your own performance, something shifts in the room. People lean in, follow your thinking and trust what you’re saying.
That isn’t a personality trait reserved for natural speakers. It’s a skill, and it can be learned. It’s what separates the people whose ideas get heard from those whose ideas get overlooked.
When you get it right, your message doesn’t just land. It carries weight, shapes decisions and moves things forward. That’s when presenting stops being something to get through and becomes one of your most valuable skills.
What participants say
“…the best presentation training course I’ve been so far in my 15 year career (and I’ve been to many)… Most importantly, it made me think about many things differently.”
Anneli Reiter – Commercial Decision Support Controller
In-House Training Built Around Your Team
Every in-house programme is built around your people and the situations they actually face: board presentations, client pitches, team meetings and conferences. Your team will learn how to:
— Structure their thinking so messages are clear and easy to act on
— Stay composed and focused under pressure
— Present to senior stakeholders and clients with real impact
— Sound like themselves at their best, not like someone performing
We deliver in person anywhere in the UK and internationally, or virtually. Find out more about our presentation skills training for teams.

How In-House Training Works
We start with a conversation about your team, your goals and the presentations they have coming up.
Every participant then completes a short questionnaire, so we understand their individual strengths and challenges before we walk into the room.
We design the training around what we learn. No generic curriculum and no off-the-shelf course with your logo on it.
Then we deliver it, in person at your offices anywhere in the UK or internationally, or virtually via Zoom.
For the Moments That Matter Most
Our in-house public speaking and presentation skills training prepares people for the situations where how they speak changes the outcome:
— Board and senior stakeholder presentations
— Client pitches and new business meetings
— Conferences, town halls and all-hands
— Project updates and team meetings
— Presenting virtually
Every programme focuses on the situations your team faces most.
Why Organisations Choose Mindful Presenter
For fifteen years we have specialised in one thing: helping professionals present with clarity, confidence and impact.
Our training is practical. Everyone speaks, gets honest feedback and speaks again, so the change shows up in the room, not just in the notes.
Everything we teach rests on our own framework, The Presenter’s Operating System, and we’ve trained people at organisations including HSBC, LNER, Cancer Research UK and Virgin.
We proudly work with:
Presentation Skills Training for Teams
Whether your team needs to win clients, lead change or present to senior stakeholders, our tailored presentation skills training gives them the structure, presence and confidence to do it with real impact.
Every programme is designed around your people and delivered in person at your offices anywhere in the UK or internationally, or virtually, so the training fits around your team rather than the other way round.
One-to-One Public Speaking Coaching
Some challenges need more than a group can give. Our one-to-one public speaking coaching is built entirely around you: your voice, your patterns and the moments that matter most to you.
Coaching is completely confidential, in person or virtually, so nobody at work needs to know unless you choose to tell them.
Speak Without Fear
For some people, the challenge goes deeper than technique. Nerves, anxiety and self-doubt affect how they feel every time they’re asked to speak.
Our Speak Without Fear programme moves you from pressure and panic to clarity, calm and lasting confidence, by understanding the fear at its root rather than just managing it.

Common Questions
Is this a public speaking course or a presentation skills course?
Both. Some people come because they dread standing up. Others present regularly and want their ideas to land better. The fears differ; the skills underneath are the same, and our training covers both, whether it’s an open course or in-house for your team.
Can you deliver this training in-house for our team?
Yes, and most of our work is exactly that. We come to your offices anywhere in the UK or internationally, or deliver virtually, and design the training around your people and the situations they face.
How is in-house training tailored?
We start with a conversation about your team and goals. Every participant then completes a short questionnaire, so we understand their strengths and challenges before the training begins. The programme is built around the presentations and meetings your team actually has coming up.
How much does in-house training cost?
It depends on the size of the group, the length of the programme and where it’s delivered. Tell us about your team and we’ll send you a clear proposal.
What approach do you use?
Everything we do rests on a framework built over fifteen years, The Presenter’s Operating System. It has a foundation and six layers, and we have published the whole thing free to read, so you can see exactly what our training is built on.
How many people are on the open course?
Six is the optimum. It means everyone gets real time on their feet and personal coaching on what they do with it, rather than watching thirty other people take turns.
Will I have to present in front of the group?
Yes, but never on the spot and never unsupported. Every exercise is built to move you forward at a pace you can manage, and nobody is asked to do something they have said they do not want to do.
What if I am too nervous to attend?
Most people who book feel exactly that. You will not be the only one in the room who nearly did not come. If the fear runs deeper than nerves, our Speak Without Fear programme may suit you better.
Who comes on these courses?
Professionals at every level, across every sector — from people who have just been promoted into a role that requires speaking, to senior leaders who have avoided it successfully for twenty years.
