Paula Smith
Making an Impact one presentation at a time
Your expert in Presentation Intelligence ®
CEO of the Global Institute of Training and Presenting/Editor of Impact – Workforce Development Magazine/ Professional Speaker CSP/Author/Master Trainer
I’m a bit obsessed about powerful training and presenting.
I’ve been busy helping experts, entrepreneurs and organisations to grow their business and their brands by harnessing the power of speaking for the past 30 years. Presentation Intelligence® and Exceptional Communication are the things that rock my world. Even after all this time I still get such a thrill watching my clients growth journey. I love the results I get working closely with my clients, knowing that when I’m done, they now have the confidence, knowledge and skills to have a real impact on the people and organisations they work with. I get just as addicted to achieving their goals as they do.
