Coaching

Work through our signature playbook, the Presentation Builder, and give your team a common framework and language to collaborate for better results.

Our approach

Your business and the results you seek.

We get to know your business. Multiple touchpoints with managers can make the difference between a thought-provoking workshop and transformational, lasting change.

Playbooks.

We distill theory into practical methods, making it easier to organize ideas, quickly complete a draft, and follow a plan to fill any gaps.

Sustained support.

Transformation occurs in the follow-up, where our coaches help you play to your strengths, offer guidance on making a point more compelling, refine a story, or communicate with greater gravitas.

“I’ve been giving presentations throughout my career, but each time I take a course or get coaching from Portico, I learn something that makes me better. I encourage everyone on my team to think more broadly about presentations. They’re not just the formal events; it’s every time we interact with our members. We’re putting the training and coaching into play whenever we meet.”
