Public Speaking

It is indeed an art to be able to say something in a way that it is heard and acted upon in a desirable manner by the recipient. Be it on a political stage or in a board room meeting, careers can flourish or end depending on the effectiveness of speeches. Great presentations are known to have successfully motivated the dullest of minds and directed many-a-lost agenda to a focused goal. We believe that this is more of an art than a science because delivering a message requires a great amount of skill and intuition which then combines with the emotional intelligence of the speaker to activate further skills like adding humour to build rapport, asking the right kind of questions, constructing a sentence that works as a thought catalyst and more. This course will help you to not only achieve mastery of these skills but will also nurture your ability to initiate and lead a conversation with people across cultures, one that you can use in other areas of your life as well. This way, you will acquire real growth in your core skills and not just theoretical knowledge.
