Speak like you are on
a TED Talks stage
Incorporate simple principles used by the best TED Talks speakers into your presentations.
The best TED Talks are often unusual and memorable by design. Sign up for an interactive training session, or a lecture, where you'll learn how to apply this in your presentations.
You can learn to simplify complex information, work with your audience, bring excitement, and incorporate storytelling.
This lecture consists of explanations, video examples and practical tasks where you can try out specific tricks used in TED Talks.
TEDx Prague speakers are faced with a very demanding task: share their story while standing in front of hundreds of people. This is what Martin helps them prepare for.
Techniques used at TEDx can also be applied at conferences to great effect.
Make an excellent pitch
Martin prepares speakers for MASH UP investor evenings at Impact Hub Prague, and for conferences where it is necessary to capture attention. In these environments you have to pitch your ideas, projects, or products in a short amount of time.
You will learn how to explain your intention, how to name the value proposition and capitalize on the unique selling proposition.
You will find how to ensure that key information will really stick in the minds of your listeners and will turn indifference into interest and action.
You will also study personal storytelling, an important part of a great presentation. This interactive lecture is based on practical exercises and case studies.
Speak effectively in front of the board and management
Do you need a practical lecture or a training course that will teach you to present to management and the board?
Martin will explain how to gain their genuine attention and how to simplify complex information, graphs, and analyses into coherent presentations.
Complex does not mean complicated. Here you will learn how to structure information, how to design your slides, and how to make actionable proposals for management decision-making.
During his 17+ years of working with various companies, Martin has seen thousands of presentations and heard hundreds of managers complain about the same things – exactly what they don't see in their subordinates' presentations, and what they need to see.
Apply storytelling in business and leadership
Would you like to learn how to search for, find, and tell stories that increase the value of the product or service you offer?
Just as a story increases the value of a product, it increases the impact of a motivational speech and the ability to lead people. Through stories, you can share fundamental values, goals, and achievements that inspire.
Good stories are an essential part of high quality presentations, business meetings, or public speeches. They affect both the rational and the emotional sides of decision-making.
When you use storytelling effectively, you achieve better results. After the lecture you will know where to find good stories, when to use them, and how to convey them.
Master authentic speech and rhetoric
Are you looking for authenticity and credibility in speech, confidence in presentation, and the ability to capture and hold your audience's attention?
This interactive training course is based on working with your body, breath, and voice. You will learn how to formulate your thoughts correctly and how to persuade your audience in a lively and natural way.
Many salespeople and bankers are excellent at working with information. They know the sales cycle and have plenty of arguments. However, their speech is often cold and impersonal.
In this lecture, I will show you the path to authenticity, sincerity, and genuine emotion.
Conquer the art of improvisation
Improvisation is crucial for handling sudden situations. It requires stress management, quick thinking, creativity, and the ability to find new and original solutions.
In a lively and inspiring workshop on adaptability, innovation, and reaction to change, we will first draw on insights from neuroscience.
You will witness and learn techniques for developing improvisation—and how to use this great tool when you really need it.
First time hearing about improvisation? Martin will gladly share his previous talks on the subject and introduce you to the genre.
Let's get to work. Every minute counts.
