There are a few spots remaining for a new public speaking and presentation course called Speaking Mastery, to enable professionals to gain confidence and speak powerfully. It is designed specifically to help professionals attract more clients and to inspire and motivate others.
The program will run for three months and features 16 hours of experiential training and techniques used by expert speakers, designed to bring speaking and performance skills to a new level.
“Having good communication skills is such an essential part of our personal and professional lives, now more than ever,” said Deborah Lee, communications coach and owner of Speak Your Best! “I developed this course to help professionals at all levels gain confidence and learn to speak powerfully and persuasively in almost any situation, whether it’s with another individual or in front of hundreds.”
The course will cover overcoming performance fear and anxiety, crafting memorable signature speeches and talks, vocal variation techniques, enhancing stage presence, the art of powerful presenting, effective rehearsal methods, and related topics beginning January 21 from 9:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. It is limited to 8-12 participants to be highly customized for each attendee. Each participant will also receive one individual coaching session with Lee. Coursework includes lectures, hands-on training and performing, personalized feedback, interactive breakthrough exercises, and homework.
