Elevator pitches, networking intros, difficult client conversations: speaking can be stressful and it’s easy to lose your message. In this session, you’ll learn how to control your nerves to communicate clearly and sell your brand.

Public speaking nerves take over when our flight or fight response is triggered – and that means you’re no longer in control. In this workshop, you’ll learn simple techniques you can use to stay in control of what you say and how.

First, you’ll learn more about how your brain and body connect, so you can reduce anxiety both physically and mentally. In a safe, supportive environment, you’ll then learn and practice techniques that will allow you to communicate with confidence and impact.

You’ll leave the session ready to engage any audience and – finally – get you and your business heard.

Who for? Anyone who struggles with public speaking or difficult conversations at work.

Who by? Jude Bolton, Speaking Works. Jude provides public speaking workshops, 1:1 coaching and corporate training to help people speak at anything from their child’s school assembly to a huge conference with confidence and authority.
