How to Speak with Presence

Whether you are making a pitch, presenting to a client, or delivering a formal speech, your business depends on your ability to speak clearly and effectively. And as a PR professional, the stakes are even higher.

In this lively and interactive session, you will gain a toolbox of concrete strategies that can be applied immediately - in any speaking setting. Learn how to hone your message - and use your voice and body language to make that message stick. Sarah Gershman of Green Room Speakers will show you how you can cultivate your own executive presence and connect with any audience. All participants will have opportunities for practice and feedback.

As a fellow entrepreneur, Sarah will offer special tips on how to use your voice to communicate your company message and grow your business.

This event is the first of a three-part series: entrePReneurs, formerly Executive Communicators.
