Situation
A Fortune 100 firm needed presentation skills training on a regular basis for their global employee base. Their Training & Development group was looking to outsource all presentation training programs to a US-based firm. They sought a partnership with a company that could provide training to all levels and business units, to a variety of size groups, and who could customize programs to be aligned with the company’s culture.

Solutions

• Franchetti Communications customized a suite of business presentation training solutions including half-day and full-day group programs, one-on-one coaching for senior executives, business-unit specialized sessions, and rehearsals for major events

• Multiple trainers were available to provide a high level of personal attention in a group setting

• New employee presentation skills sessions were provided for up to 50 employees per session

• Provided keynote speeches on effective presentation skills for company off-site and special events, with up to 300 attendees

Results

• Cost effective, group and individual training met the company’s high-volume training demands, allowing 10,000+ employees to be trained in the US and worldwide

• Employees, most of whom were very uncomfortable with public speaking, learned a repeatable, practical method to prepare and practice for internal briefings and external / client-oriented presentations

• High-potential employees were selected for coaching, positively impacting employee retention and promotions

• Sales, which had fallen to a competitor, recovered due to more strategic messaging and a systematic method for preparing for new business pitches
