Simon Smith Coaching
Simon Smith is a professional coach, trainer and speaker. Operating from Belfast, he specialises in helping people in business communicate more effectively through his coaching and training services.
Simon is a Master Practitioner and trainer in NLP, an Accredited Inspired Coach with The Institute of Human Development and a qualified member of the Chartered Management Institute and the Institute of Hospitality. He climbed the corporate ladder for over 20 years in a wide variety of senior commercial roles before founding Simon Smith Coaching, a dynamic organisation providing leadership coaching and training to the public and private sector across Northern Ireland and the UK.
In addition to providing personal coaching to professionals, executives and business owners, Simon Smith Coaching specialises in coaching and training for public speaking, be it for audiences on a one-to-one basis, organisational teams or large audiences.
Speaking in public can be a traumatic experience for some people. It is said that many fear having to stand up in front of others to talk, more than they do death itself. The biggest challenge people face is in fact the "story" they tell themselves about the possible outcome of their speech or presentation.
Every one has to speak in public to "sell" something. It may be how you earn your living such as a business development role or sales representative, or that you have an idea, a suggestion or proposal that you want someone to "buy into".
Speaking with Power - Presentation & Platform Skills are one-day and two-day workshops that help people overcome their fears and feel more confident in speaking in front of other people whatever the circumstances.
Speaking with Power - Selling from a Buyer's Perspective is sales training with a difference. It combines our specialist knowledge and understanding of communication with our experience as a professional purchaser. The result is a training not to be missed and never seen before. If you want standard sales training then this is not for you. If you want something thought provoking that provides you with what you need to know about getting into the buyer's mind to transform your sales conversations then this workshop is a must for you and your sales personnel.
As a professional networker, Simon Smith is Area Director for BNI (Business Network International) in Northern Ireland. BNI is the world's largest and most successful business referral organisation and helps business owners and managers become experts in word-of-mouth marketing.

It requires top-down commitment and is an integral extrapolation of our Executive Coaching programmes. Leadership Skills Coaching will increase the performance, fulfilment and self-belief of staff in even the most demanding corporate environments by empowering them to find their own solutions and responses, with support from managers, and tolerance and compassion from the leaders and executives.
Executive Coaching
Executive Coaching enables top managers to take responsibility for themselves. It involves intensive, one to one sessions that draw on the latest personal development techniques. Its aim is to help corporate level decision makers maintain clarity and cohesion in their thoughts and actions, and to dispel negative or self limiting beliefs. Executive coaching produces tangible improvements in sales performance, productivity, planning and interpersonal/ leadership/ motivational skills. These positive effects are then passed down to other staff tiers and they lay the groundwork for enhanced performance throughout the organisation.
