“Every session had something new, and the way I speak now has improved. I can now talk continuously for two to three minutes and, if needed, for five to six minutes. Even if I forget my words, I can add examples or humor to keep the communication going.”

I’ll start my journey with Kapable from the beginning. Academically, I was always a good student. I was also an extrovert and excelled in sports. With these three strengths combined, I felt I would be successful in my professional career. Initially, when I started my professional journey, things were great. I was able to influence people and performed well in business as well since I was at the junior level. Gradually, I climbed the corporate ladder.

In the last three to four years, I became a VP for my organization, which placed me in a management position. It was then that I realized my communication skills were not up to par. During group discussions or meetings with high-profile management, I found myself lacking the necessary vocabulary and sentence structure for larger audiences and presentations. This became a significant hindrance to my growth and started to affect my confidence. In the past year and a half, I struggled to gain recognition in front of larger audiences and during presentations that lasted 30 to 45 minutes. This situation made me nervous, which was never the case in my youth. I realized I needed to take action. Although I love reading books, they didn’t help much in improving my communication skills. I felt I needed a communication course, so I inquired with Indeed and other platforms. After careful consideration, I chose Kapable as the right platform for me.

This was how my journey with Kapable began. Initially I felt my growth to be limited due to my weaknesses, however, I was determined to overcome them. In my first session, the CARE technique was introduced. This technique is not only applicable to professional careers; it can be used anywhere, even when talking to a friend. The CARE technique helped me significantly. In your early forties, learning something new is initially very exciting but can become boring over time. The CARE technique maintained my excitement. The EPL formula was also excellent. The one-on-one session was amazing, especially the topic on communicating and the introduction to all members. This opened doors for interaction with others in the curriculum, making the journey emotionally integral. Every Saturday or Sunday, attending the session became a mandate for me. The EPL session and the psychological session were particularly memorable. Every session had something new, and the way I speak now has improved. I can now talk continuously for two to three minutes and, if needed, for five to six minutes. Even if I forget my words, I can add examples or humor to keep the communication going.

A recent example is a meeting from 10-12 days ago with a customer who was initially willing to give only five minutes. That meeting went on for 40 minutes. I was well-prepared and had done my homework on the customer’s background. My introduction was comprehensive, including my past, hobbies, and my team’s hobbies. We found common ground, which extended the conversation. The product presentation and the correlation of his upcoming facility with a California facility were discussed, and the meeting concluded on a very positive note. It was my structured communication through my sessions at Kapable that helped me achieve this success.
