Speak with Charisma™
Many business presenters need to deliver their message with extra impact to persuade, motivate or inspire their listeners.
During this training, we focus on the core development areas for advanced presenters who want to develop their charisma:
- audience engagement and interest, creating a dialogue
- expanding the voice range and variety of techniques
- advanced and strategic eye contact and body language
Speak in Stories™
In this workshop you learn how to craft powerful stories.
Luckily, all you need is a little know-how and practice. Using your own narratives, you build, revise and tell stories that can be used to spice up a talk, share important life lessons or explain/reinforce key messages in business. You can even use a story to build a presentation.

Speak Big™: Public Speaking to Large Groups
This course helps speakers achieve their best at big events and to apply their individual, natural strengths to bring authenticity to the stage.
It also provides them with practical skills and techniques to make their messages clear and engaging to a large audience. They learn tips and “activities” to connect and interact with the listeners in spite of the large group size (and to better manage the inevitable stress).
Prepare to Speak: How to Prepare Your Presentation
This workshop teaches you how to prepare for and write a clear and persuasive presentation.
The focus is on what you present—that is, you will work on developing a topic, gathering information, narrowing the focus to key ideas, using the right structure, writing slides and making the content engaging for your audiences.
Mastering Your Voice™
In this course a professional actor/voice coach guides you in using your voice more consciously and effectively.
Exercises, demonstrations and drills, teach and reinforce voice techniques for speaking about own personal and professional topics. Depending on your needs, we may work on vocal range, intonation, emphasis, pauses, deep breathing or other voice-related areas.
Whether you speak publicly frequently, teach, conduct webinars, or work a lot over the phone, this course will help you better use your voice to communicate and deliver important messages.
