The latest of five team presentations I have prepared with Alexander?s support went as great as the others. We received exceptional feedback from both our CEO and COO. We achieved our goals! Thank you Alexander. Thanks for being there, as is sadly usual, at the last minute on a very tight deadline. And thanks for working online with us so that we could include the rest of the team from different locations.

I have experience working with Alexander. My new team members didn?t. They didn?t know what to expect and were a little hesitant. Not so after working with Alexander. They were quickly convinced of his professionalism and ability. Especially good about Alexander?s presentation coaching is the way he works. He doesn?t ?teach? or push from the outside in. He integrates our expertise and sensibilities so that we are a team working together at perfecting a powerful presentation.

I highly recommend Alexander?s presentation coaching because I know of no better and more comfortable way of crystallizing and expressing the unifying thread, creating a powerful storyline, and nailing the right wording.

Alexander immediately convinced me of his psychological and professional competence. Mr. Harmsen coached my 2nd round ERC Starting Grant interview for 14 highest level academics in Brussels. The way he worked with me immediately convinced me of his psychological and professional competence. This begins with his ability to create a trustworthy and familiar atmosphere, which is rarely found in a university setting.

One gets the feeling of entering an intellectually and personally highly open-minded and inspiring space. The brainstorming and polishing process is characterized by a genuine interest in the topic, which fostered a natural constructive way of honing the presentation and preparing for the interview.

You can rest assured that you will sharpen your ideas about your project, arrange them effectively, and, finally, interview with an inner conviction and naturally flowing linguistic precision. I got the grant.

This presentation training is an excellent cross-check to find out where and how I was making sense and where not. I would call the strongest effect of the coaching ?linguistic slimming?. The suggestions and examples helped me realize how to express complex ideas simply. The second effect was harmonizing and aligning the visual language across all slides. As a result, we made the presentation much easier, almost effortless, for the viewer to follow and understand.

The way this training and the trainer Alexander?s presents principles guiding his advice made what I learned very sustainable for me. It has given me a long-term advantage by changing how I approach presentations. The learning by doing makes it now easy for me to apply what I learned to other presentations. I often ask myself ?How would Alexander judge this?? Especially when condensing content to its core communication impact.

I found it particularly valuable that he not only knows a great deal about communication psychology but excels in applying it to what I needed to achieve with my presentation. I left with a much stronger presentation and a lot of useful insight into interpersonal communication.

Um curso muito bom! Respeitou toda a gente e as suas explicações foram muito claras.

O aspeto mais positivo para mim foi a interação descontraída com o Alexander e as aulas muito práticas.
