The National Football League Players Association, the union for professional football players in the NFL, has asked Baker Communications to lead a two-day Exceptional Presentations training workshop for NFLPA staff members. The organization was seeking a client-focused, reputable training partner with a proven presentation training curriculum. After consulting with Baker representatives and reviewing the course content, the NFLPA was convinced that Baker could deliver the level of quality material and expert instruction needed to help its team members improve their presentations and public speaking skills.
Two Senior Level Baker Communications Instructors and Exceptional Presentations Experts will lead a two-day workshop on exceptional presentation skills for the NFLPA's staff. During this highly interactive training experience, attendees will gain experience using fundamental presentation tools such as the ASIA Opening (Audience, Idea, Solution, and Action Request) introductory format to quickly catch the interest of the audience. Participants will learn how to best address their target audience to retain interest and effectively communicate the most salient information, as well as practicing public speaking techniques to refine their control of vocal tone, pitch, and gestures, to keep their presentations lively and engaging. Attendees will also benefit from receiving expert feedback on ten video recordings of practice presentations delivered during the workshop, and personal, one-on-one coaching from the instructors.

About the NFL Players Association
The National Football League Players Association is the union for professional football players in the National Football League. Established in 1956, the NFLPA has a long history of assuring proper recognition and representation of players' interests. The NFLPA has shown that it will do whatever is necessary to assure that the rights of players are protected-including ceasing to be a union, if necessary, as it did in 1989. In 1993, the NFLPA again was officially recognized as the union representing the players, and negotiated a landmark Collective Bargaining Agreement with the NFL. The current CBA will govern the sport through 2020.
