Absolutely exceptional! These sessions have been so good to be a part of. Everything I have learnt will not only help me in my professional life but also my personal. A big shout out to Con for the time and attention he gave to everyone during our time with him! Could not recommend enough!
Cons Public Speaking and Communication course is literally life changing! If you are considering this course, don't hesitate. Amazing content delivered in a warm and engaging environment. Highly recommend.
This programme has improve my over all communication in professionally & personally. Thank you Con.
"I have participated in numerous self-development courses led by esteemed mentors, and I can confidently say that Con stands out as an exceptional mentor I have had the privilege of learning from. During my Speaking and Communication Coaching and Training course , Con imparted a profound insight to me, emphasizing that I hold an obligation to share my knowledge with others. This statement resonated deeply with me and served as a powerful source of inspiration. Encouraged by Con's words, I have continued my personal growth journey through his one-on-one coaching sessions. Con's belief in my potential, coupled with his genuine passion for his work, sets him apart as a remarkable teacher and mentor. His dedication to empowering others is truly commendable. I wholeheartedly endorse Con's coaching and guidance to anyone seeking transformative personal development. Thank you, Con, for your invaluable support 🤝🏽
If you're looking to improve your communication skills, I highly recommend Con's course. My initial goal was to boost my confidence in speaking and better understand audience psychology. However, what I didn't anticipate was the personal insights and increased self-awareness that occurred during the course. Understanding more about yourself, your 'blocks' and mindset inadvertently transforms your communication abilities—not only in public forums but also on a personal and relational level. Con's genuine, authentic, kind approach to teaching, his professionalism in presentation and the open, safe forum he facilitates was such a great experience for growth in more ways than just public speaking. It was one of the best investment I've participated in for some time for personal development. Thanks Con!
I completed the Confident Speaking and Communication workshop which I attended to improve on my presentation skills. Con took the time to provide valuable constructive feedback on my strengths and areas of improvement required and to pinpoint specific areas where I could grow as a presenter. The workshop allowed me to interact with other participants as well and by the end, I felt much more confident in my ability to deliver engaging and impactful presentations and have a new found level of confidence in my approach to public speaking. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone looking to enhance their presentation skills.
Incredible! I THOUGHT I would always have a fear of speaking in public. Going red, getting lost for words, feeling nervous... I signed up to Cons workshop because I knew I needed to improve on my confidence when speaking at work in meetings, while networking and eventually in front of large crowds as a public speaker. I wanted to be ahead of the game. There was nothing that I explained to Con that he didn't understand or that he hasnt seen before. He could ALWAYS provide a strategy or a way around my fear or the challenge I was facing in relation to communication. The workshops not only allowed me to improve, but they also allowed me to build relationships with some really supportive and like-minded people. Con walks the walk and talks the talk. He is genuine, a great communicator, and truly enjoys mentoring in this space and watching his students grow. I highly recommend Con if you are considering a course or mentoring for confidence and public speaking. It was a wonderful experience and I now have the tools and skills to further develope my career.
I recently attended Con’s Confident Speaking and Communication workshop. In five weeks, I gained more confidence and skills than I did in months of attending other public speaking courses. Impressed by the workshop, I decided to continue my development through one-on-one coaching with Con. Not that long ago I was super nervous when I spoke in front of large audiences and delivered presentations at work. With Con’s guidance and practical tips, I now feel so much more confident and comfortable doing these. Con is passionate and holds me accountable while remaining exceptionally accommodating. Con ensures that the coaching is tailored to my schedule and commitments. This flexibility has been crucial in maximising the benefits of the coaching sessions. I highly recommend Con’s programs to anyone seeking not only to enhance their communication skills, but also to unlock new opportunities for personal and professional growth. It is one of the best investments I have made in myself. Thank you so much Con!
I recently had the pleasure of attending several workshops and public speaking engagements led by Con, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed! His ability to captivate an audience and communicate complex ideas with ease is remarkable. Not only did he engage us with his dynamic presentation skills, but he also provided valuable insights and techniques that have significantly improved my own speaking abilities. His personalized approach to training ensures that everyone, regardless of their experience level, walks away with newfound confidence and skills. I highly recommend Con to anyone looking to elevate their public speaking. His expertise and charismatic approach truly deserve a 5-star rating!
I can highly recommend Con's Confident Speaking and Communication course. I felt it challenged me, gave me great feedback and enlightened me on techniques confident and professional speakers use. Con taught me how to structure a presentation and how important body language is. I will be undertaking more training in the near future. Thanks Con.
Cons' expertise in public speaking and communication was outstanding. I gained immense value from his workshop, "Confident Speaking & Communication" and have successfully incorporated the tools and methods I learned into my professional endeavours. The workshop as conducted in a relaxed and well-paced manner, allowing for individual development while also providing opportunities to observe and learn from others who were also learning and presenting. This approach allowed for a comprehensive and enriching learning experience. ~ Workshop completed: Confident Speaking & Communication 4th Dec 2023.

He tailored the sessions to suit our needs and we have noticed the benefits almost immediately. The staff picked up some great presentation skills and learned how to structure and continually evaluate our training sessions. It was also fun and a real team building exercise. We would happily recommend his services.
I attended Con's amazing magnetic learning class in July 2023. Amazing learning techniques. This 5 effective days workshop takes you into another level giving you a direction for accepting criticism and compliments. This workshop was an eye-opening experience, both personally and professionally. Extremely impactful. I will continue to draw upon the skills I learned in this workshop for years to come and grow further with confidence. Every session you deliver a speech with conviction and better your learning. I appreciated all the speech evaluations done with clarity of improvements given to me.

Thank you Con for sharing some useful hints on presenting and creating engagement, at our Business House Australia breakfast networking. It was greatly appreciated by all who attended.
I attended Con's workshop to improve my public speaking ability and be able to communicate more clearly. I learnt to slow down, have less umms and be more impactful. At my first public speaking event following Con's course I was approached by 3 different people after my talk who complimented me by telling me that it resonated with their own personal experience and they found it inspiring. Great feedback!!! Thanks Con for your enthusiasm for a topic which many of us find difficult.
I highly recommend Con’s confident speaking course. I have done so many public speaking courses in the past, and this was surely the icing on the cake. I learnt a lot about my own voice and how to create a more influential speech.
What an exceptionally inspiring course! Con's knowledge and expertise has taken my confidence to another level. I learned so many new tricks about presentation skills. I had no idea that there was a method to public speaking and presenting. A relaxed, engaging and fun way with plenty of opportunities to participate and put theory into practice in a safe and friendly environment. Highly recommended. Thank you Con Koutsikas.
Con is a very responsible, approachable and skilled speaking mentor. After attending Con's 5 weeks workshop about public speaking and effective communication, I have learned and improved greatly in speaking and communication. At the fourth week of the workshop, I got a job interview and Con gave me some very practical and constructive suggestions for my interview. Two weeks late, I received the call telling me I got the job. Thank you so much Con!
I can’t recommend Con’s Confident Speaking and Communication course highly enough for anyone needing to improve their speaking skills, whether you speak publicly or not.

Con is an inspiring speaker and teacher, and I have come away with vastly more confidence in my speaking skills after completing his course.

One of the best educators I've seen. His knowledge and understanding of human behaviour is amazing. Keep up the great work Con.
I recently attended Con's Confident speaking and communication course. I found it to be the most practical and pragmatic professional development course that I have attended till date. The structure and delivery were fantastic and so was Con's passion and enthusiasm. The focus was on " learning by doing" in a very comfortable environment rather than didactic lecturing. The improvement I found over the five week course was just great. Thanks Con.
Having seen Con speak on many occasions over the last few years, I have to share how fantastic he is. He is so passionate about wanting to see others succeed and delivers his message with clarity and a touch of humor that makes learning enjoyable. Con creates a comfort in the room, where everyone feel safe to share, which really makes you get the most out of what you are learning. I feel like his confidence rubs off on you and by the time you leave - you feel like you can do anything! Thank you Con!

Last month I attended the workshop ‘Eliminate your fear of public speaking’ with Con. It was fantastic. He helped us work out where does our fear come from, understanding our brain, and how to overcome the fear of public speaking. He gave us tools to turn nerves into excitement. Instead of being nervous with public speaking, I now look forward to it.
Thanks Con for the great workshop, it has worked wonders!
