Public speaking techniques for those who hate presenting

Having presence in the boardroom, making a sales pitch, or giving a presentation that captures and engages your audience isn’t an innate skillset.

For most, mastering these skills require hours of craft and regular practice. These moments are all about performance, but very few are fortunate enough to have been trained in traditional acting techniques that actually resonate and translate effectively at work.

In this interactive, in-person masterclass, BRAVA CEO, Melissa Thom, will guide participants through exercises designed to boost confidence ahead of public speaking.

Who’s it for?

This intensive, full day session is for anyone who’d like to learn some practical tips to help unlock the power of their voice, successfully influence an audience and communicate with confidence.
