Effective Public Speaking for Professionals
2-Days Workshop
Speaking in public is one of the most feared (if not the most feared) experiences. Public speaking requires flare and style that overcome the speakers’ agitation and stage frights. In reality, it is more often for professionals to face hostile or demanding audiences.
Public speaking ranges from formal speeches to everyday business presentations, where it demands the ability to present concepts, to develop goal orientations, as well the ability to differentiate between oral and written communications.
