About this Event
If you would like to improve your public speaking, perfect your presentations or simply reduce nerves, join us on Wednesday 29th October for our special full day workshop for professionals. Our director of Debate Hub, Michael Hepburn, has over 15 years' experience coaching professionals and has worked with politicians, entrepreneurs, doctors, marketing professionals and more. This workshop will not be focused on 'power zones', hand placement or other internet nonsense, but solid principles of good public speaking, with actionable advice and engaging activities to make you a more natural, confident communicator by the end of the day.
Working in small groups of 6 to 12, we will cover how to prepare speeches, presentations and pitches as well as what to focus on - and what to not worry about. The sessions are always interactive, with participants given opportunities to practise in a friendly, low-stakes environment. You can choose to focus on a specific presentation or speech, or use the time to develop your overall speaking skills.
