Using Theater Techniques for Public Speaking
February 2019
Nanda Mohammad
12 PM - 4 PM
Public Speaking
Description
Knowing how to speak is imperative to being successful in your field. Whether you’re a senior architect in your firm, an HR manager in your company, or a leading executive in your organization, lack of public speaking skills can hold you back.
In these unique private sessions, you will learn how to use skills appropriated from the acting and theater world such as voice and speech techniques, as well as body language to effectively communicate with others and deliver your message across a large auditorium, or on a one-on-one basis. These skills will help you to build your presence on any platform, as well as teach you how to project and enunciate well.
With the sessions being private, the trainer will solely focus on the issues you face, which can range from controlling your breath, to articulation, to how you use your hands. By working on these details, you will come out of the sessions with increased confidence and skill.
