Introduction
In the increasingly electronic age we live in, the opportunity to engage, face-to-face with a live audience, is one that every Association professional should be capable and confident of taking. Public speaking is an excellent way to engage a community.
Executive Heads and Senior Directors that can prepare and deliver in a compelling and engaging way to an audience are very well placed when it comes to communicating in a range of contexts. Whether it is an Awards speech, an AGM, to external stakeholders, at one of their own conferences or to their industry, being an effective public speaker can make a crucial difference to an individual looking to help their Association achieving its goals. In addition, developing your skills as a speaker can transfer positively back into how you lead your team, how you inspire them to act and work towards the goals of the Association.
Just what is involved in delivering effectively as a speaker at a conference? What are the key tools and techniques that will enable you, and your Association to stand out?
This full-day session will share the key aspects of becoming a successful speaker. Whether you are just starting out, or if you’ve spoken a number of times, this Masterclass is your chance to:
- Understand your own approach to speaking, what you like and what you want to change
- Hear the fundamental skills and thinking used by successful speakers
- Practise and received constructive and supportive feedback on your performance
- Learn as part of a group of like-minded Association professionals
- Leave with a plan of action as to what you’ll do next
