Where direction is needed, communication is key.
At C-level and in entrepreneurial contexts, the focus is not on "fancier slides". It is on clarity, prioritization, and making an impact in critical situations.
Our training formats combine presentation coaching, masterclasses, and focused in-house sessions. They help leaders communicate their message in a structured and convincing way, even under pressure. We focus on presentation skills in high-stakes moments like Positioning, argumentation, decision-making, Q&A, and handling objections. We work on openings, transitions, structure, closing, and most importantly: staying calm, precise, and confident. Our trainings are hands-on. Built around real content from participants rather than generic exercises. They are suitable as executive coaching, as an in-house masterclass, or as a compact training format for top management.
The goal is to not just improve presentation skills, but to ensure leaders communicate effectively when it matters most.
HR and People Development teams need trainings that build skills sustainably and scale across the organization.
Our programs develop presentation skills step by step, from foundational training to advanced masterclasses for leaders.
The approach is based on a clear skill model covering structure, storytelling, presentation techniques, visual design, and personal impact. We also support HR in creating consistency across the organization. This includes shared presentation principles, structured feedback routines, and mechanisms that ensure learning transfers into everyday work. Optionally, we offer train-the-trainer programs, internal multiplier models, and coaching for leaders who are expected to communicate as role models.
Our formats include: in-house trainings, in-house seminars, workshop series, modular courses, and coaching elements. The result: A scalable development path that establishes presentation as a core leadership skill and raises the overall quality of internal communication.
Marketing and sales teams need communication skills and presentations that work in real conversations.
Storytelling alone is not enough. What matters is a clear value logic, structured arguments, and a narrative that leads from the first sentence to the next step.
Our workshops, seminars, and in-house trainings focus on exactly that. Presenting with impact, handling objections, and building a clear path to decisions. Typical topics include turning value propositions into a clear storyline, placing proof points where they strengthen the argument, and using visuals to support rather than distract. We train presentation techniques for pitches, sales presentations, proposal meetings, and trade fair settings. Where needed, we also introduce PowerPoint standards to help teams work faster and more consistently.
Formats include in-house workshops, presentation seminars, dedicated courses for sales teams or sales leadership, and coaching for key roles. The result: greater confidence in conversations, clearer communication, and stronger close rates driven by better presentation skills.
In Corporate Communication and Investor Relations, expectations are high. Precision, consistency, and trust matter.
Presenting in this context means making complex topics quickly understandable and building a line of argument that holds up under scrutiny.
Our trainings go beyond standard formats. They combine consulting, presentation techniques, structural work, and executive presence. We train how to define clear core messages, structure arguments, and build storylines for numbers and developments. This includes visualizing data effectively and handling Q&A with confidence, even in critical situations. Relevant for capital markets decks, press conferences, internal leadership communication, and large corporate formats. Delivered as in-house training, seminars, or modular programs, depending on the need.
If teams are meant to truly improve, training has to work with real content. That is exactly how we approach it. Practical, in-house, and focused on measurable improvements in presentation skills.
What makes explain unique
EXPERIENCED
For over 20 years, explain has been training communication in moments where decisions are made. Our presentation trainings, seminars, and workshops are hands-on and built around real business situations. Trainers and coaches work on what actually matters: openings, structure, transitions, closing, and Q&A. This builds presentation skills that hold up in meetings and on stage.
HOLISTIC
Many trainings focus on isolated techniques. explain takes a broader approach: Strategy, structure, storytelling, visual design, and personal impact are developed together. Participants learn how to prioritize content, sharpen core messages, and present convincingly. Where needed, we also integrate PowerPoint logic to help teams work more consistently. Presentation becomes a skill that can be learned, repeated, and measured.
LEADING
Our approach combines in-house training, seminars, masterclasses, and coaching with a clear focus on transfer. The goal is not a good training day, but lasting change. Teams communicate more clearly, leaders present with greater confidence, and communication becomes more effective in decision-making. Presentations turns into a leadership tool, and trainings into a development with impact.
