Topics for Tony Sloman

  • Mind-Body Language
    MBL is a completely new spin on how we can transform a performance to captivate our listeners.

  • Own Your Space
    OYS, a cornerstone principal of Tony’s Passion and Purpose methodology is about owning our right to speak, our right to be in a position of authority… our right to determine the outcomes we seek. OYS resonates with all audiences, particularly aspiring leaders and organisations who want to future-proof their people.

  • Greater than the Fear of Death

  • Bore no More
    For everyone that needs to present technical information; lawyers, finance executives, engineers, IT professionals – this humorous spin on how to bring technical presentations to life is both entertaining and inspirational. Tony provides the techniques that can turn any jargon into Shakespeare and demonstrates how we must no longer hide behind a Powerpoint deck – after all Jeff Bezos has banned it.

Tony, I Just wanted to formally thank you for the two 'engage & inspire your listener' workshops you provided Swaab. The feedback I have received from across the firm has been resoundingly positive. Most participants thought it was an extremely positive experience and met workshop objectives. While most, have also requested follow-up practical sessions. I truly feel you struck a chord with everyone who attended, senior partner to junior lawyer. I look forward to our next collaboration with Passion and Purpose. Sincere thanks.

Attending Tony's public speaking workshop was one of the most beneficial things I have done by ways of professional development. The course is so much more than a simple confidence workshop. The communication techniques taught are so beneficial that there is not a staff member, business leader or client I have not recommended Tony and Passion and Purpose to.

After attending Tony's one day Passion and Purpose presentation workshop, I have seen immediate improvements in my presentation skills. What sets Tony apart from others is his focus on authenticity, with tailored tips to individual attendees based on his stage techniques during multiple hands-on practices throughout the day. Personally, the performance aspect of the workshop developed my confidence and presentation abilities. Tony encouraged us to incorporate a new technique and feedback each time we present. By the end of the day, I was able to confidently utilise many techniques I learned on the day in my presentations and I felt I was able to perform and engage the audience! Thank you, Tony for the opportunity and I am still practicing and ustiling many of the techniques I learnt on the day in my many high stake communication sessions!

I engaged Tony to coach me on a presentation I had to give in front of forty people, the thought of which initially terrified me. To say he is a master of his craft is an understatement! He went above and beyond and taught me to openly embrace my vulnerability and connect with the audience in a way that would inspire them. His techniques, skill, care and passion for coaching performers was evident throughout our preparation and practice, and on the day of the performance I was able to effortlessly get into the zone and actually have fun. My confidence as a public speaker has increased and I have learned that the art of performing is authenticity. Tony’s skill as a performance coach is exceptional and I highly recommend his services.

Tony delivers a powerful workshop and I left at the end of the day with immediate skills to put into practice in all areas of my life. This is a practical training day and all attendees gained something they were looking for. Tony is an excellent facilitator and made all attendees feel comfortable and confident under the pressure of vulnerability. Thank you!

I had the immense pleasure of recently attending Tony’s Passion and Purpose workshop, with thanks to my company for encouraging me to participate. The night before, I was a mixed bag of nerves and excitement; nervous because I’m usually not great at communicating with strangers, let alone a roomful of them, and excited because I knew getting out of my comfort zone is a sign of growth. Tony beautifully crafted a safe space for all the attendees to share their stories and life experiences without fear of judgement. As the day unfolded, it felt like each of us were drawing strength from one another and eventually I gathered the courage to be vulnerable in delivering a message I thought was important. As I said goodbye to Tony at the end of the workshop, he told me to have faith (in myself). Having heard this well over a dozen times, I was pleasantly surprised when I left the room feeling more sure of myself and a lot more confident in using my voice and space to get my message across.
