Social Agility

Loved the interpersonal approach to the Presentation Skills training. Jon's warm and flexible interactions worked well for us as individuals as well as in the group. He was responsive and the day was very practical, engaging and useful. Always know you've had a good experience when you leave feeling lighter and more positive than you started - especially considering it's a public speaking course!

The best presentation training I've ever received. Jon and team don't try to turn you into a certain type of presenter, rather, they bring your natural, unique presenting style to the surface.

I am a PhD student with 15 years commercial experience who has recently attended a workshop with Jon at Social Agility. His expertise, insight, energy, and empathy were exceptional. This workshop provided a nurturing and fun environment to work on my challenging project at hand and I left with tangible tools to enhance my work. Social Agility provided a valuable, relevant and enjoyable consultation experience. Jon's humour keeps you laughing and engaged with the process! Many thanks.

I finally got to experience one of Social Agility’s amazing workshop (Presenting Naturally). This workshop was more than just your average lecture about how to be more confident when presenting. As a University student there are always assessment tasks where I am required to present, now before doing this workshop I would be very nervous and always using my cue cards no matter how prepared I am beforehand. Now after doing the workshop, I feel more confident in myself because of all the valuable tips and skills that I have learned has really helped me when presenting in front of my class. Social Agility really understands the wants and needs of their clients, they go above and beyond to ensure that you leave feeling good about yourself. I highly recommend them for sure!!

I thoroughly enjoyed attending the ‘Presenting Naturally’ course. It was the perfect size group in a comfortable environment with an awesome facilitator. Jon makes everyone feel welcome and is so dedicated to ensuring each individual benefits from his coaching. I found the techniques valuable and the structure of the day was well paced, variable, professional yet fun. I walked away with a new found understanding of what my ‘super power’ was in order to harness my authentic self. To embrace what I assumed was a weakness and focus on making it a strength. Highly recommended.

Thank you for a terrific day of training Social Agility.In my opinion it wasn't long enough! I learnt so much, too a bunch of notes, including brilliant tips and techniques and in the process found my inner superhero. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire day it was well thought out, planned and executed with Jon Hopwood who is a brilliant facilitator. Jon was incredibly professional and caring to all the participants in the room who were are different levels .It gave me the confidence to back myself, and to realise not everyone is the same we all have diff styles but you can do this. Some of my main takeaways from the day was the Narrative Arc of a presentation, simply telling a story with a start, middle and ending and reading the audience and having empathy. I can thoroughly recommend this training program and dont hesitate to book in.

I recently participated in a Confident Communication Workshop at the Social Agility. I am highly recommending Dr Jon and his team for any kind of workshops. They have extremely useful experience and knowledge. I have learnt so much from them and I consider it as a great investment in my personal development. Thank you Social Agility.

It was very personal, delivered by a specialist who made you feel very comfortable and happy to go off related tangents to unpack and explore areas that he could possible assist in.

'Presenting Naturally' was a highly informative and entertaining workshop that has already improved my public speaking skills. Even though presenting is a big part of my role, I learnt far more in this workshop than I was anticipating. Jon is a fountain of knowledge and helped everyone on the day with their own challenges and hurdles. I could not recommend this course any higher!

I recently attended the Confident Communication workshop run by Social Agility, it was very engaging ,informative and quite frankly the best workshop I have attended till date. I particularly liked the fact how the workshop was tailored to address the needs of the participants. I left the workshop feeling more confident and with insights & techniques that I will employ for the rest of my life.Jon as always was a fantastic facilitator and made all of us feel welcome and comfortable. I will highly recommend workshops run by Social Agility to my peers. Thank you again.
