I bet you and your team are working hard to develop, market, and monetize your products.
You’re working at a breakneck pace, but there never seems to be enough hours in the day.
Most days, you’re stuck in back-to-back meetings. Listening to pitches for new product ideas, discussing ways to increase productivity, reviewing projects, interviewing potential hires, and speaking with potential customers.
Are some of those meetings actually “pre-meetings”? You know, meetings where you review drafts of presentations by someone in your group?
How many times, at the end of these days of back-to-back meetings, have you asked yourself,“What more can I delegate?” or, “How can I scale what I’m doing?” or maybe even, “How can I clone myself?”
Have you considered what would be different if your employees were better at communicating one-on-one and in group settings?
- Would meetings be shorter and more efficient?
- Would you spend less time in pre-meetings, reviewing their draft presentations?
- Would you be able to delegate more customer presentations to your staff?
- Would you have the peace of mind, knowing that they are capable of carrying out the company’s vision and communicating it to others effectively?
And while you wish you could train them yourself, you just don’t have the time or bandwidth to do it. You’ve got other priorities to tend to!
Well that’s exactly how Andrea Goulet, CEO & Co-Founder of Corgibytes felt a year ago.
Andrea is a prolific speaker who understands the importance of public speaking. She knows it’s important to share ideas and talk to potential customers about the product her company is building.
Andrea began sharing presentation tips and skills with her co-founder, but after 7 years, she felt it was important to get an outsider to work with him.
“Having someone else tell Scott, my co-founder, the exact same things that I’ve been telling him can be really refreshing. I was looking for a structured program, where there’s homework, assignments, and he gets to work with a group of people, and it’s not just me telling him: ‘You need to be a better speaker.’
In Femgineer’s Confident Communicator Course, Scott was able to see that there are other people like him, who have ideas and want to get them out there. He wasn’t starting from a place of me as the marketing person telling him as the technical person what to do. It was a group experience.”
If you’re looking to help your co-founder or employees up their communication game, then watch today’s video. In it, we’ll walk you through a brief interview, and you’ll learn from Andrea:
- Why Andrea wanted her co-founder, Scott, to get more prominent speaking engagements, but realized she first needed to help him elevate his communication and presentation skills
- The results that the company experienced once Scott completed the course and started speaking more
- Why Andrea believes in Femgineer’s Confident Communicator Course and is sending more employees in 2017
