Presentation skills coaching
Companies are increasingly asking candidates to prepare for a 5-10 minute presentation to make at the start of the interview. This can make candidates feel even more apprehensive than an interview.
Relax. Denise will guide you through how to prepare, to focus on the key message, to give a clear presentation and to anticipate questions. She will listen carefully (with her assessor hat on) and provide clear feedback on how you performed. She will then switch to coach mode to enable you to learn how to improve.
These sessions can range from 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the level of support required. We can focus on style, content or both.
• If you feel reasonably confident with your presentation but want accurate and helpful feedback then a 30 minute session may be all that you need.
• If you are feeling rising panic and don’t know where to start you may want to opt for 2 x 1 hour sessions. In this case we will get a plan and structure together in session 1; you will work on this at home over the next couple of days and then return to review and fine tune it.
A 1 hour presentation skills coaching session is £80

Assessment Centre coaching
Assessment Centres are increasingly being used in the private and not for profit sectors. From retail to law, from charities to consultancies, they all make use of this effective method of selection.
Assessment Centres may seem like a long winded way of getting a job, but think of it more as lots of opportunities to demonstrate your strengths.
It's not just you talking about what you can do, but you actually being actively involved, whether it be group exercises, case studies, reports and presentations or role play interviews.
Psychometric testing is an important aspect of most assessment centres and you can undertake tests as used in industry to increase your confidence and capability.
Assessment Centre coaching is practical coaching and customised to suit your particular requirements. You will understand the reasons for each particular element of the assessment centre, what assessors are looking for and practical activities to ensure you perform at your best.
Denise Taylor is used as an assessor with companies as diverse as the Civil Service Fast Stream, Rugby Cement, Christian Aid, Vodafone and the Prison Service and has been undertaking these roles since 1988, assessing well over 2,500 people.
A 1 hour assessment centre coaching session is £80
