Although it may seem a frightening prospect, public speaking is a fantastic opportunity to deliver a performance that triggers the imagination and lives long in the memory of the audience. Studies show that excitement in delivery can be more persuasive than eloquence. When aware of pre-speaking nerves, reframe, from one of imminent doom to one of excitement and readiness.
Our half-day Public Speaking training course in South Wales has been specially designed by looking at the planning and preparation phases which are the most important parts of making a successful public speaking presentation. Planning features heavily in all of our training courses, not only will good planning and preparation ensure that you have thought carefully about the messages that you want (or need) to communicate in your public speaking presentation but it will also help improve your confidence. This course also looks at a range of techniques to help delegates deal with pre-speaking anxiety so that they can focus on giving their best performance.
