Effective Public Speaking

Effective Public Speaking

How to speak clearly and confidently in front of an audience

Whether it’s for a small circle of colleagues or several hundred complete strangers, public speaking is an unnerving challenge for many. But with practice, it is possible to become more confident and communicate more clearly so that you are at ease and your presentation stands out.

Goal

We offer tailored, hands-on help on how to achieve top form and elicit positive feedback from your presentation – whether using Powerpoint or speaking notes. Get high value insight on raising your messaging game in this most unforgiving but ultimately rewarding of public platforms. Whether it’s four people or 400, we’ll help you win the battle for hearts and minds— on your terms. Our approach is to keep the training very interactive, with a minimum of lecturing and a maximum of role-play in which we will film you making presentations and give feedback on how to improve.

Programme

• Keeping messages fresh, apt and in context
• Authority and gravitas: grabbing the audience’s attention and holding it

• Motivating the audience: inspirational examples, anecdotes
