About this Event

Do you stay quiet even when you have something you want to say?
Do you speak up at work and get talked over?
Does the thought of a big meeting fill you with dread before it even starts?
If so, this is for you.


Speaking up doesn't come naturally to us all, yet it’s a skill anyone can learn.

This half-day session gives you the knowledge, tools and practice to show up differently in meetings from the very next day. This isn't a plan to “fake it until you make it” but clear and practical guide to build your confidence and speak up more at work.



What to expect
  • An honest conversation about why so many of us find speaking up at work such a struggle
  • Clear tools to get yourself into the right headspace before high-stakes meetings, so nerves don't take over
  • Specific phrases and techniques to get your voice heard in the room
  • Practice speaking up in a supportive group, so you're not trying these out for the first time in a real work environment.



What you will take away?
  • A clearer understanding of what's been holding you back and how to overcome it
  • A practical toolkit that you can use immediately at work
  • The belief that speaking up is possible for you, whatever your level or role



Who should attend?

This session is for anyone who knows they hold back and wants to change that. Whether you're early in your career or managing a team, everyone in the room is there for the same reason. You're in good company.



Feedback from past sessions

“As someone who has struggled with confidence since a child, I find it empowering to know that others also feel the same way and that there are ongoing steps I can take to improve my own confidence”

“I loved this workshop! I’ve had quite a stressful week and this was a lovely way to re-connect with myself and others. It has made me feel like some of my fears and worries are more manageable and within reach.”

"A little professional confidence boost - that’s what I got thanks to Charlotte!"

Charlotte spent more than a decade working in media agencies as a Strategy director on brands including IKEA, Vodafone and Sainsbury’s. Early in her career she hit burnout trying to please everyone, and rebuilding her own confidence is what led her to coaching.

Her style is direct yet supportive and always leaves you with something practical to take away.
