One of the most feared tasks by employees at all levels in every kind of business is having to speak in public. The employee might be exceptional at their job and have all the information required, but the act of presenting in front of an audience can reduce them to a bag of nerves.
Nobody is able to deliver an effective presentation, if they are not equipped to deal with the emotional trauma of public speaking. The employee is representing the business, so it is important that they are prepared and have the required skills and tools.
