Stand and Deliver

1 Day

Are you often called upon to give speeches or make business presentations for your organization – either in a boardroom or ballroom? A poor presentation or speech not only reflects poorly on the individual, but can also reflect poorly on an organization. In this workshop, we start with managing the stress and nerves of presenters, all the way to vocal tones and body language. An option to have a cameraman, with full gear, to film each activity session is available.
