Description
About this Event:
The thought of speaking in front of an audience can throw normally calm and confident people into a frenzy. In this workshop, participants will get expert coaching and feedback on ways to strengthen their public speaking skills, from techniques to ease frayed nerves to exercises designed to build confidence and improve focus.
We’ll start the workshop with improvisational games designed to build self-confidence and sharpen listening skills before tackling specific public speaking challenges in breakout groups.
By the end of the workshop, all participants will have the tools necessary to become powerful communicators, and will feel more confident speaking in front of groups of all sizes.
