Public Speaking
Public speaking is consistently rated as one of our top fears, and we meet so many brilliant people who avoid it as much as possible.
Elevate is on a mission to help everyone overcome their nerves and start embracing the benefits of public speaking. These include raising your profile, selling more, promoting an important cause, supercharging your network and securing a promotion or new role.
Once we’ve got the nerves sorted, we will help you to understand how to tailor content for different audiences, deliver with impact and create an easy-to-follow structure. Nothing gives us more satisfaction than seeing our delegates take to the stage so we’ll work with you to find suitable speaking opportunities.
Course Overview
Plan an engaging speech for any audience
Overcome your nerves and make a connection
Deliver with impact and be remembered for the right reasons
Our full day courses explore all aspects of public speaking and give plenty of opportunities to practise in a safe and supportive environment. Please come prepared to contribute to all exercises and to offer encouragement to fellow delegates.
Topics include: overcoming nerves; discovering your purpose; five questions to plan any speech; painting pictures with words and how to deliver with impact. Where possible, we will look to match graduates of the course with speaking opportunities for Elevate and/or partner organisations.
