This programme helps communicators to prepare for and deliver an effective speech. Here, you learn to motivate people by speaking to them in terms of the benefits they will receive by taking action. Each instructional segment is followed by participant speeches that put the newly-learned skills into action. We cover public speaking fear and how to move forward despite it, as well as increasing enthusiasm. This builds speaker confidence. By organising information clearly for the audience, participants grow in their conviction and are perceived more as experts.

Delegates will be able to:

Work through fear of public speaking;
Build confidence and enthusiasm by creating meaningful, memorable speeches;
Develop greater abilities for thinking and speaking with less preparation;
Minimise self-defeating speech and behavior; and
Present ideas to, and inspire the audience.

Online Format—Introduction to Public Speaking is a 4-hour interactive virtual class.

Register for this class and you will be sent ONLINE login instructions prior to the class date.

Working with Dr. Atkins of Improving Communications has been a very positive experience. Everything about the program is exemplary! Managers have made it a point to tell me how pleased they are with the improvements made in the communications skills of the participants.

The Professional Development Workshop is an extremely effective program. The participants are looking forward to follow-up sessions with Dr. Atkins and we recommend his programs.
