Vocal Solutions UK
An Effective Voice in Business Communications
INVEST YOUR TRAINING BUDGET TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
The research shows:
1. One to One Coaching produces faster, more effective, measurable, permanent results than large corporate training events.
2. 70% of effective communication is achieved not by word, but through body language, style of delivery and changes in perception and expectation. Each person is different!
3. People make positive changes once they recognise a problem and believe that a solution is achievable.
4. Public Speaking and Presentation now rank higher than death, in recent surveys of what people fear most.
Sometimes, it's the people with the most important things to say who are the ones
feeling they lack the skill or confidence to effectively communicate their information.
There is always more than one solution to any communications issue.

Performance = Potential minus Interference
-Fear interferes with one's potential to perform -whether in group situations or even in a two-person meeting. Sometimes it's simply a lack of awareness that one's style of presentation is not achieving a positive response; or there's a need to find a better way.
Skills training, including mental (intellectual), physical (practical) and emotional intelligence (psychological) concepts, alongside focused preparation and lots of practice, are the keys to eliminating interference and turning that fear or unawareness into success.
Karin does not teach a generic set of principles; she starts with the detail, the challenge, a specific issue, and equips the client with relevant 'tools' and methods to achieve their goal -methods which will work for them as a unique individual, - with their own tastes, existing skill-set, personality and style, yet always mindful of the parameters of the work context.
Out of this process, principles emerge which can be successfully applied to other challenges and situations, while retaining autonomy and breadth of perspective. Despite a commitment to client-centred coaching, very often these tools will work equally well for other colleagues, and the sharing of new ideas and successful approaches is always encouraged, because in so-doing, they become additional resources for everyone.
One to one coaching will be most effective, because each person is different.
One to one coaching may be a viable and more cost effective option than large training events in some instances. Some companies also find it can be a successful alternative to in-house training for certain colleagues who may respond
more readily to the perceived objectivity or additional privacy of an outside specialist.
In such cases, Karin's work aims to compliment and support your in-house objectives.
Implementing a variety of training options means that the full breadth of your company's training needs is met more comprehensively.
You will know which of your personnel are likely to benefit most from the individual coaching option. Your highest flyers may be ready for a more detailed or in-depth application than group events can provide, or perhaps the nature of their role throws
up challenges which are beyond the brief or scope of your usual large-scale training providers. You will certainly know of individuals who are more comfortable in a
one to one situation, - keen to progress, but wanting a more personal dynamic.
Sizing It Up
Karin is often approached by companies who are re-evaluating the training programmes they currently have in place, and want to increase the options for their staff.
One M.D. recently explained: "We're no longer happy with the level of results that a
'one size fits all' training event tends to produce".
Passing It On
Vocal Solutions UK offers individual coaching which can maximise the effectiveness of previous group training events, through specific 'real-life' application, back in the workplace. Equally, Karin can step in to continue progress with selected individuals, at the point where a large training company has completed its contract.
Not all great Managers are necessarily also good teachers. One to one coaching can be especially useful for
Line Managers who have attended training events and are then expected to pass on their learning to their team.
This is not as easy as it sounds! While it may be a great theory, the reality in many companies is that team members are inadequately served, due to the limited presentation skills of their team leaders. We all know from school days, that poor teachers can limit the potential of their 'students', even when the student is very capable. It's all in the presentation.
Fast, Noticeable Results
Even during the first coaching session, Karin can help develop long term skills which will benefit the whole company. It's about converting potential into reality, bringing people to life, encouraging the practice of broad, detailed and objective perspectives, developing clear vision and strategy, equipping people with the tools for delivering more successful communications results.
-Being more efficient and effective always increases a person's motivation and energy, too. This enthusiasm is viral and tends to have far-reaching positive effects on other colleagues. Karin is widely known for her capacity to motivate and build confidence, and companies enjoy the optimism and team support she encourages. She also has a reputation for fast-track skill development.
Practical Application
As soon as a person's potential is converted into practical achievement and demonstrably successful application, any improved skill (competence), and the accompanying increased confidence, become permanent- a higher base-level for all subsequent performance.

It makes good business sense to try before you buy:
Karin fully appreciates that your training budget must be invested wisely and to maximum effect. You want a coach who delivers results, and can handle whatever needs, personalities, styles and levels of challenge that present themselves.
Free Trial : Coaching Sessions for Two Employees:
Karin can offer a free 90 minute session for each of two staff of your choice.
These might be a Director, Manager, or perhaps a member of your team who
has a presentation coming up, or a challenge they feel they lack the confidence to achieve.
Their honest feedback, and the objective responses of their colleagues,
are more useful than any glossy advertising brochure!
That way, you'll know whether Karin's approach will work for your company.
All you need is an available training budget, and a genuine interest in
employing Karin's services.
