Improve your public speaking skills and develop your own unique style.

Overview

Communication is a critical skill for leaders. As the challenges facing higher education grow more complex and communication methods more diverse, developing competency and comfort with public speaking is essential.

Join us for a virtual training designed to help you improve your public speaking skills. First, you’ll take a self-assessment designed to help you pinpoint both your strengths and areas for improvement when it comes to public speaking. Then, we’ll break the art and science of public speaking down and discuss each component in more depth:

  • Crafting your talk: a roadmap for your audience
  • Designing your delivery: voice, body language, and artifacts
  • Considering your setting: in-person and virtual environments

You will leave with a deeper understanding of how to arrive at your own authentic communication style, as well as a host of practical tools you can apply right away to improve your own public speaking skills and confidence. You can also consider adding three success coaching sessions with the speaker, Annie Phillips, or another success coach to continue honing your public speaking skills.

Who should attend?

This training is designed for leaders across levels and functional areas who want to learn, or deepen, skills to be more confident in their public speaking.
