We started worentavilo because business presentations needed better financial grounding

Back in 2018, we noticed something odd. Companies were spending thousands on presentation training, but their finance teams still struggled to explain budgets clearly. That disconnect bothered us.

The problem was everywhere we looked

Finance professionals knew their numbers inside out. But when it came time to present quarterly results or pitch a budget proposal, things fell apart. Not because they lacked expertise — they had plenty of that.

The issue was translation. Taking complex financial data and making it digestible for executives, board members, or cross-functional teams required a completely different skill set. One that business schools rarely taught.

So we built worentavilo around that specific gap. Our programs focus on the intersection of financial literacy and effective business communication. Because understanding the numbers is only half the job.

How we got here

2018

Started with workshops

Ran our first series of weekend seminars in Newcastle. Twenty-three people showed up. We taught basic presentation skills for finance teams.

2020

Remote pivot changed everything

When everyone moved online, we adapted fast. Turns out virtual presentations need even more clarity than in-person ones. Enrollment jumped.

2022

Corporate partnerships began

Major Australian firms started requesting custom training. We developed specialized modules for different industries — banking, retail, manufacturing.

2025

Expanding program offerings

Now running comprehensive six-month programs alongside shorter intensive courses. Next intake starts September 2025.

What guides our approach

These aren't corporate values we hung on a wall. They're practical principles that shape how we design every program and teach every session.

Clarity over complexity

Financial data is already complex. Our job is making it understandable, not adding more jargon or theoretical frameworks.

Practice beats theory

You learn presentation skills by presenting. Every program includes real practice sessions with actual feedback, not just lectures.

Context matters

Presenting to a CFO differs from presenting to marketing. We teach you to adapt your approach based on your audience's needs.

Iterative improvement

Nobody becomes great overnight. We focus on steady progress through repeated practice and targeted feedback.

Real-world relevance

All our examples come from actual business scenarios. You work with case studies based on situations you'll face at work.

Measurable progress

We track improvement through recorded presentations and peer assessments. You see concrete evidence of skill development.

Our teaching method in practice

Most programs throw theory at you for weeks before letting you try anything. We flip that. You start presenting in your first session.

Here's how it works:

  • You record a baseline presentation on day one. It's usually rough. That's fine.
  • We identify three specific areas to improve based on your actual performance, not generic advice.
  • You learn techniques targeting those exact issues through focused exercises.
  • Next session, you present again. We compare the recordings to track improvement.
  • Rinse and repeat until you're confident presenting to any business audience.

The timeline varies — some people need eight weeks, others prefer our six-month intensive program. Both approaches work because they're built around consistent practice with targeted feedback.

Our next program starts September 2025. Limited spots available for the intensive track.
