Professional Speaking Skills

Who Should Attend

Anyone who is called upon to speak in public, either with no previous experience or some experience, who wish to improve their skills and increase their confidence.

Overview

The workshop concentrates on polishing each person's individual performance by dealing with items such as voice clarity, posture and body language, influencing skills, presence and professional image, rather than how to design, prepare and structure a presentation and handle visual aids, which are covered in Effective Presentation Skills workshop. Numbers are kept low in order to enable everyone to receive individual coaching and feedback to improve their technique and style. There will be a practical element to the workshop and each participant will receive a DVD of their practice session together with verbal and written feedback.
