You’ve already received practical tools to give a clear and engaging presentation. But how do you take the next step?
How do you not only inform—but truly persuade?
How do you prepare, so you really convince?
And how do you do this in a way that feels natural, confident, and fully your own?
These — and more advanced presentation skills — are the focus of the 1.5-day training Advanced Persuasive Presenting for Expats and Dutch Professionals.
This training is the natural next step after “Presentation Skills for Expats and Dutch Professionals”.
For whom?
This training is for professionals who have already followed the training “Presentation skills for Expats and Dutch Professionals” and want to deepen their impact.
You recognize that:
- Your presentations are clear, but not always as convincing as you’d like

You’re ready to move beyond the basics and develop a more strategic, persuasive, and confident way of presenting.
Do you recognize this?
You’ve improved your delivery. And yet…
- Your message doesn’t always fully land or lead to action
- You sometimes struggle to make your story truly compelling
- Presenting still throws you off balance
- You invest time in preparation, but don’t always see the impact you want
You know there’s more potential; you just need the right approach to unlock it.
What makes this training different?
This is where we go deeper.
We sharpen the core principles from the first training and move beyond them, focusing on advanced skills that elevate your impact and persuasion.
We focus on four key elements that make the difference between a good presentation and a truly persuasive one:
- Deep preparation & ownership
Go beyond basic structure and learn:
- How to build a convincing narrative
- How to prepare strategically and efficiently

This allows us to:
- Work on your specific challenges
- Refine your delivery and presence
- Strengthen your authentic style
- Advanced skills that elevate your impact in practice
We expand into the elements that truly determine your effectiveness — especially in more complex or high-stakes situations:
- Delivering a strong, memorable closing
- Designing slides that truly support your message
- Handling questions professionally and with confidence
- Managing nerves using practical, mental and physical techniques
- Presenting in a way that not only informs, but persuades and moves your audience
- Bringing it all together
You will deliver a full presentation where everything comes together:
- Structure
- Persuasion
- Delivery
- Presence
You receive 360-degree feedback, so you leave with clear, concrete next steps.

This is what typically happens when people train with me:
“I’ve followed a very special training ‘presentation skills. I expected to receive all kinds of technical tricks. But, it entailed much more. It was also about becoming more conscious of how you stand in front of an audience.”
“The emphasis in the training is really on practising, this way theory and insight can really be applied. According to me , this is only way to really learn.”
B. Goris (Bloem in Beeld)

“The training was a great experience. What I really enjoyed was that each participant received a lot of personal attention. It was also a very practical training.

J. Mossel (Spa Tree)
“Mabel is a relaxed and inspiring coach. She creates a safe environment, that makes you feel comfortable.
