WHERE THEORY AND EXPERIENCE COME TOGETHER

Kimberly combines research-backed tools and experience to help those in international business and technical fields build their presentation skills. She has a BS in engineering (BSEE), a masters in communications (MACCC), and 20 years experience working in technical, B2B sales, and business management.   

She started her career at DuPont de Nemours ($26 B), where she gave her first presentation during a technical training course as a young electrical engineer. As her career advanced into R&D/Tech Service Manager, Global Business Manager, and EMEA Regional Manager (P/L $150 MM); so did her public speaking venues. She became a product spokes person and regularly spoke on television, radio, and at large events. 

Kimberly left DuPont in 2011 to help engineers, IT, scientists, and international business leaders to build their presentation and public speaking skills. While constantly seeking the best evidence-backed tools, she works with those in technical fields to build confidence and turn complicated ideas into results-oriented presentations. She has an easy-to-understand native English accent and loves helping those using English as a second language. She is the founder of European Market Link Sàrl (the owner of Presentation Training in Switzerland website) and will be your trainer.

WHO

SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR...

WHAT

LET'S TALK CONTENT

Training courses include communication, persuasion, and public speaking theory; as well as the latest concepts from psychology, sociology, neurology, and popular trends. Action-oriented training modules are arranged into a logical and cumulative process. So, even presenters with complicated information, can create key messages and structured presentations. We don't stop there, we're constantly looking for new ideas and technologies, so our courses remain leading edge. Read on to learn more.

CONFIDENCE

Are you terrified of public speaking? Don't worry, you're not alone. You'll gain an understanding of the physiology and psychology behind fear. Then, you'll learn to overcome these nervous feelings with specific exercises. Want more help? Book a session with our anxiety specialist.

CLARITY

You'll learn to turn details and ideas into powerful messages and clear slides. Designed specifically for those with analytical minds, our BLACK BOX METHOD walks you through a step-by-step process to focus and structure content for business results.

CHARISMA

Charisma comes from connecting to the audience with your own personal style. Together, we'll explore techniques and view videos of inspiring charismatic presenters. Then, you'll refine your approach with videos of your practice sessions and personal tips from our coach.

TIME

Simply, our training saves time. First, we cut-out the boring bits and focus on what you really need to be a great presenter. Second, you'll apply theories directly to a presentation project from work (if you want to). Third, our BLACK BOX METHOD allows you to develop future presentations faster.
