Figure out how to be your best when the pressure’s on. The ability to connect with others in an authentic way is the key to being a great speaker – and it carries over into the success of your business and personal life. This 8-person class gives each student the chance to articulate their specific public-speaking goals and give a 1 – 2 minute pitch/speech. You’ll get expert feedback in a supportive environment and leave this workshop with the physical experience of being in front of a group.
Student Takeaways:
Be more genuine and less robotic when you speak publicly
Don’t let nerves get in the way of a killer pitch or demos
Test the waters and get expert feedback on ideas for conference talks
Address groups, no sweat, even if you’re in a new leadership position
