Which Training Formats Can Your Organisation Choose?
- Full workshop programme: four sessions that take a team from confidence and delivery through to thinking on their feet and handling tough Q&A.
- Single-topic workshop: one focused session, such as presenting with impact or handling difficult questions, for a team with a specific need.
- Talks and masterclasses for large groups: interactive sessions for a department, a conference or a company event, with live demonstrations and audience exercises.
- Coaching for leaders: small-group or 1-to-1 coaching for managers preparing a town hall, a pitch or a media interview.
Training can run at your office, at an external venue or at a Speech Academy Asia centre.
How Do Workshops Work for Large Groups?
Large groups learn best when everyone speaks, not just a few volunteers. We design each workshop so that every participant practises:
- Pair and small-group drills run at the same time across the room, so the whole group gets speaking time.
- Role-plays based on your workplace, such as client pitches, recruitment talks, project updates and stakeholder meetings.
- Peer feedback using a shared checklist, so colleagues can keep coaching each other after the session.
- Live hot-seat rounds where volunteers answer rapid-fire questions in front of the group and the trainer breaks down what worked.
What Does the Corporate Training Programme Cover?
The full programme runs over four sessions. Each one is built on Speech Academy Asia’s proprietary, trademarked methodology and can be shortened or combined for your schedule.
Session 1: Confidence and delivery
Participants start with the Speech Limiters Test, which shows what holds each person back. Common limiters include going quiet around senior management, avoiding disagreement and fear of criticism. They then learn Neuro Somatics™ techniques, including slow breathing, power poses and posture, to calm nerves before speaking. The session finishes with the B.E.S.T framework (Body language, Emotions, Sentence structure, Tonality): eye contact across the room, purposeful gestures, facial expression and vocal variety.
Session 2: Structure and reading your audience
Participants learn the I.P.A.D structure (Intrigue, Problem, Address, Delight) to turn any update or pitch into a clear story. They use DISC to adapt to four audience types: results-driven Dominators, talkative Influencers, team-minded Supporters and detail-focused Calculators. The session also covers first impressions, active listening and showing empathy when people raise concerns.
Session 3: Thinking on your feet
When people are put on the spot, stress makes clear thinking harder. This session teaches the PREP model (Point, Reason, Example, Point) for instant answers, plus Past, Present, Future for status updates, Problem, Cause, Solution for issues and What, So What, Now What for quick insights. Participants practise a deliberate pause before answering and drills such as weaving three random words into a 60-second talk.
Session 4: Presenting with impact and handling tough Q&A
Participants learn to design slides with action titles that state the takeaway, and to use slides as visual support rather than notes. For Q&A, they practise staying composed under pressure, bridging from a narrow criticism back to the bigger picture, and answering honestly when they do not know. They also rehearse responses to difficult personas, such as the person who makes a speech instead of asking a question.

Which Teams Benefit Most?

Is the Training Customised for Our Organisation?
Yes. Before the workshop, we speak with your team lead to understand your goals, your audience and the situations your staff find hardest. We then build role-plays and Q&A scenarios around your industry and real workplace situations, so participants practise on the conversations they actually have.
