Presentation coach

Overcome your fear of speaking

Do you recognise the feeling of not daring to say what you would really like to say at work? Or do you think you are not good enough? These thoughts cause many people to develop speech anxiety or not dare to show themselves. A rejection at a primary school speech, a comment from a classmate or colleague or that little voice in your head that laughs at you, is fear number one worldwide. And that while visibility at work is increasingly important. In my presentation coaching (1 on 1 or in groups), you develop the courage to present yourself - with all your imperfections, because your story deserves to be heard.

'You go and get some more life experience first.' With those words, I was rejected from drama school. Retrospectively, not crazy advice for a 17-year-old, but at that moment, the universe seemed to throw me off the stage. 'Not for you' was written in thick letters in my mind. Something I later translated into 'you're not pretty, fun, interesting or good enough'. Restrictive thoughts that thankfully didn't stop me from following my passion, but bothered me for a long time.

ONLINE TO OFFLINE SELFCONFIDENCE

Do you find it scary to stand on a stage and would like to work on that at home, in your own space? With my online programme 'Presenting with LEF' you can. In three comprehensive modules - which you follow at your own pace - I teach you to take your stage relaxed.

Module 1: Preparation

What do you all need to know and do beforehand to put on a good presentation?

Module 2: You as a presenter

You as the presenter: who do you want to be when you're in the spotlight?

Module 3: Showtime

Showtime! What happens at the “moment suprême” — how do you manage your nerves, be in the right mindset and deal with a lot of distraction?

In this training, you get instant access to all modules full of tips, tricks and exercises.

"In two half-day sessions, Pauline put me and colleagues directly to work. We presented, got feedback and did it again in front of the camera. Presenting with LEF, in other words! This way, Pauline ensures a fast learning curve. She works with energy, enthusiasm and a positive critical view that helps you develop further. Definitely recommended!"

What others think of me

"For several years now, I have been climbing the stage more than 150 times a year to inspire listeners with my entrepreneurial dreams and adventures for "a better world". Often as part of a programme, I am just one ingredient of an attractive cocktail of performances and presentations. Like no other, I know how complicated it is to manage such a day. For a group of more than 300 entrepreneurs, Pauline de Wilde was the chairman of the day. I would like to express my appreciation for her professionalism. Because I give it to you to get punctual government officials, passionate entrepreneurs, knowledgeable advisers, an unstoppable astronaut and an imperturbable sustainability warrior with humour, tact and feminine superiority to come into their own in the heat of the moment. Once again, a deep bow to Pauline. I hope to meet you on some stage again soon."

"Pauline is a very passionate and inspiring chairperson of the day, who with great knowledge and personal interest makes it a truly engaging day. She stands for real stories and great discussions put down with great quality and guts."
