Present with Chutzpah 

You speak volumes – even before you’ve said a single word. From the way you use your hands, eyes and mouth to the way you give pause, pace and pitch to your voice, you are constantly broadcasting how you really feel – as well as how your listeners should feel about you.  Whether presenting one-to-one, for small groups or in front of a big crowd, if you know how to command yourself and the audience while delivering a compelling and memorable message, you’ll be perceived as more competent, persuasive and powerful.

In this engaging session, participants will learn:

• How to manage presentation anxiety with any audience
• Three surprising ways to start a speech that captures the audience right away
• How to bring your unique voice and personality to every presentation
• How to bring your presentation to life with stories
• How to use easy body language techniques to project confidence (even if you don’t feel it)
• How to decrease preparation time, make scripted presentations sound extemporaneous, and make impromptu presentations sound polished
