A/E/C Short-List Interview Coaching & Presentation Training
The Short-List Interview in A/E/C is one of the most complex and important parts of designing and building collaborative construction projects where clients are persuaded to choose highly qualified firms. There are too many factors to leave it to chance and not bring in an expert to help. Teams must connect with the decision makers – plain and simple. They must present in a dynamic and cohesive way and nail tough questions with superior answers. Not one person in A/E/C got into this industry because they want to sell or focus on the mechanics of public speaking. It takes the right blend of strategic messaging, presentation delivery coaching, and creation of the visual aids to sell and win mega projects. If you’re not focused on training, coaching and hustling to cover the interview angles, you may lose the job that you just invested a ton of time, cost and energy into. Let Rainmaker help you raise your win rate.

Let Josh facilitate the strategy session. It’s not only about how you set up the strategy, but how you frame it and analyze all angles of the situation.

If there is an interview at the end of the game – the coaches will get to discover your personalities, can gauge what makes them tick, and then begin to incorporate tactics that will help them sell during the proposal in preparation for the final interview.
