In today's competitive professional landscape, your ability to communicate with clarity, conviction and consistency is paramount. Pioneering a uniquely clear approach, my coaching will inject supreme confidence into your speaking, putting you head and shoulders above your competition, whilst simultaneously enhancing your individual and workplace wellbeing. You will fill me in on your specific situation, and I will then tailor a programme accordingly. Then, we will look at physiology, preparation, handling the moment, impromptu and prepared speaking, content, presence and delivery, with an integrated feedback model. There will also be opportunities to attend my regular group workshops to try out what we cover in the 121 sessions. Is this for you, then? Well - Have you ever wanted to make new connections with a natural charm and ease? To speak up with an abundance of confidence? To lead with more presence and gravitas? Or to handle moments of pressure with clarity, poise and authority? If you have, The Oratory Studio is for you. I look forward to chatting with you very soon. Best wishes

I will train you to utilise the skills and confidence you already possess to be able to deliver your best self when presenting to others. The sessions will be personalised to your individual needs and requirements in order to give you the confidence to speak to an audience.

Why do some people trust you... and others resist everything you say? Why can the same argument convince one person and leave another completely indifferent? Why do some negotiations fail before they've even really begun? Because words are only part of the message. Behind every behavior, every reaction, every silence, there are **motivations, fears, needs, defense mechanisms, stakes and a particular way of perceiving the world**. This training program offers you the techniques, methods, and tools to learn how to decipher human behavior. Not to manipulate, but to better understand, communicate more effectively, and act with greater precision. And to influence others. You will learn, in particular, to: → Getting to know you better Identify your own mechanisms, your automatic reactions, your strengths, your limitations, and how your personality influences your decisions and relationships. → Read the others with more nuance Observe what lies behind the words: the inconsistencies, the unspoken, the changes in behavior, the intentions and the real stakes of an interaction. → Decoding verbal and non-verbal communication Word choice, tone of voice, rhythm, hesitations, silences, gestures, attitudes, micro-behavioral changes: learn to observe before interpreting. → **Understanding psychological profiles Why do some people need control, recognition, security, or freedom? Why do some attack, avoid, seduce, resist, or constantly seek to convince? → Adapt your communication to the person you are facing. Because you can't convince everyone in the same way. → Better negotiate and manage complex situations Understanding what is really at stake for the other party in order to identify the right levers and build a more effective communication strategy. → Achieve your goals with greater relational intelligence By better understanding the people with whom you need to convince, collaborate, negotiate, lead, or build a relationship. True power isn't about talking more. It's about understanding before acting. Understanding what motivates a person. Understanding what they're really trying to protect. Understanding what they're not saying. Understanding why they're reacting... sometimes even before they themselves can put words to what's happening. This training will equip you with tools from psychology, behavioral analysis, communication, and profiling to develop an essential skill: the ability to better understand people. Because when you understand yourself better, you make better decisions. When you understand others better, you communicate more effectively. And when you understand the psychological dynamics at play in an interaction, you significantly increase your ability to positively influence a situation and achieve your goals. Don't just listen to what people say. Learn to understand why they say it. I can also make you a **much more “sales-friendly/irresistible” version**, starting with something like this: "In just a few minutes, you can sometimes understand about a person what months of discussions have never revealed..." It would be more mysterious, powerful and marketable, while avoiding pseudo-scientific promises of the "I can read your thoughts" type.

I'm a Swiss citizen with a background in banking and wealth management, plus years of experience in recruiting. I've coached candidates specifically for job interviews in Germany and Switzerland — from the initial application all the way to a successful offer. Unlike a typical language teacher or generic career coach, I understand both sides of the process: how hiring managers in the DACH region actually think and decide, which answers land well, and the typical blind spots international candidates miss — both linguistic and cultural. What you can expect: Tailored preparation for your specific interview (industry, role, company) Realistic interview simulations with direct, honest feedback Sharpening your self-presentation, body language, and answer strategy Support with language nuances if German isn't your native language Insight into cultural expectations in the German and Swiss job markets (punctuality, communication style, salary negotiation) Whether you're applying to the DACH job market for the first time, or you've had several rejections and want to know what's actually missing — I'll help you show up convincingly when it counts. Ich bin Schweizer Bürger mit Hintergrund im Banking und Wealth Management sowie langjähriger Erfahrung im Recruiting. Seit Jahren coache ich Kandidat/-innen gezielt auf Vorstellungsgespräche für Stellen in Deutschland und der Schweiz vor — von der ersten Bewerbung bis zum erfolgreichen Abschluss. Anders als klassische Sprachlehrer oder allgemeine Karriereberater kenne ich beide Seiten des Prozesses: Ich weiss, wie Personalverantwortliche im DACH-Raum tatsächlich denken und entscheiden, welche Antworten überzeugen und welche typischen Stolpersteine internationale Bewerber übersehen — sprachlich wie kulturell. Das erwartet dich: Individuelle Vorbereitung auf dein konkretes Vorstellungsgespräch (Branche, Rolle, Unternehmen) Simulation von echten Interviewsituationen mit direktem, ehrlichem Feedback Optimierung deiner Selbstpräsentation, Körpersprache und Antwortstrategie Unterstützung bei sprachlichen Feinheiten, falls Deutsch nicht deine Muttersprache ist Einblick in kulturelle Erwartungen im deutschen und Schweizer Arbeitsmarkt (Pünktlichkeit, Kommunikationsstil, Gehaltsverhandlung) Egal ob du dich zum ersten Mal auf dem DACH-Arbeitsmarkt bewirbst oder nach mehreren Absagen wissen willst, was wirklich fehlt — ich helfe dir, im entscheidenden Moment überzeugend aufzutreten. Extra information for the student: Sitzungen finden online statt (Zoom, Google Meet oder Microsoft Teams) — bitte für stabile Internetverbindung, funktionierendes Mikrofon/Kamera und ruhige Umgebung sorgen. Bitte vor der ersten Sitzung die Stellenausschreibung (falls vorhanden), deinen Lebenslauf und das Datum des geplanten Interviews mitteilen. Ideal ist mindestens 1 Woche Vorlauf vor einem echten Vorstellungsgespräch, um genug Zeit für Übung und Anpassung zu haben. Bitte mindestens 24 Stunden im Voraus stornieren oder verschieben.
