Presenting in Public: Making your presence felt and your voice heard

Course Description

You know your topic inside and out, but aren’t sure that the main message is always clear to your audience. You know what to say, but are not always sure how to say it. You would like to feel more confident about presenting in public. You worry that you speak too softly, or too fast, and that your audience doesn’t hear you. You don’t know what to do with your hands. You’ve got used to presenting online, but are not sure about going back into a real room. If any of these doubts creep in to your mind, this short three-day workshop is for you.

In this series of workshops we will be focusing on the importance of presence and voice when presenting your work to an audience.

At the end of the workshop series you will

• have a better understanding of how to use your voice to best effect
• have considered the power of pausing
• have better control over pace
• have awareness of what your body language says to the audience
• have thought about matching movement to meaning
• have had the opportunity to practice speaking in a supportive environment
