About
Founder, Davis Executive Training
Nancy Davis founded Davis Executive Training in 1982. She is a charismatic, results-oriented trainer, coach and speaker who specializes in face-to-face communication, and she has spent more than four decades helping people master public speaking.
Our Mission
“To give participants hands-on practice, honest feedback and the skills they need to succeed. Fear public speaking no more!”
We judge ourselves by our intentions. We judge others by their actions. What we see and what we hear is all we have to go on, and it is what determines how we are perceived.
Skills You Will Learn
Your effectiveness depends on your ability to inform, influence, persuade and motivate. Those are skills, and skills can be taught.
Groups stay small enough that everyone stands up, presents more than once, and gets constructive feedback in the room. It is not a lecture you sit through.
Techniques to manage nerves and inhibition, so you can speak effectively in front of any size group without dreading it beforehand.
Handle questions, objections and the unscripted moment with composure, including how to run and handle a Q&A rather than survive it.
Programs
Every program is built around your people and the rooms they actually present in.
Our most requested format
A customized, participatory workshop delivered at your location. The content is shaped around your industry, your material and your team’s skill level.
Private, focused and entirely yours
Individual coaching for a specific person and a specific goal: a keynote, a board presentation, an investor meeting, or simply becoming a person who speaks up well.
How to deliver effective presentations
A seminar on the physical skills of professional presenting. Fun, fast-paced and informative, with volunteers from the audience taking part.

Testimonials
“I have been attending corporate seminars arranged by AT&T for about 10 years now, and none were more exciting than or as mentally stimulating as yours. In selling my product, I have to communicate concisely in face-to-face sales contacts every day. It is important that I make each phrase count. I found the ideas and techniques both enlightening and on target. It raised my confidence level and made selling a little bit more fun.”
“Your workshops have proven to be instrumental in helping me deliver presentations with confidence and poise. After implementing your techniques, presentations have become fun. This workshop helped me become a better representative of the U.S. Postal Service.”
“The video replay aspect of your program places it above any communicative skills workshop I have taken or looked into. I am a much more confident speaker now that I have taken the course.”
“I want to express to you what a pleasure it was taking your workshop on presentation skills. I was surprised to learn the many fine points involved in conducting seminars. I feel much more confident in my ability to increase business through seminars and speaking opportunities.”
