Public Speaking: The Ultimate Training Program

 

 

 

Though it may not always be a comfortable or desirable experience, public speaking is often just another part of life. Whether it's giving a toast at someone's wedding or pitching a new business plan to your bosses, the ability to effectively get your ideas across to a group of people through the spoken word is absolutely vital. Speaking publicly does not come naturally to everyone, unfortunately, but it is a skill that can be learned and enhanced when nurtured with the right techniques and practices

 

As author and public speaker, TJ Walker puts it:

"...nothing big in life ever happens just by sending a memo or an e-mail. The biggest moments in your life are about presentations. A job interview, a new business pitch, a marriage proposal, a request for funding, an interview on live network TV news, and a request for a promotion—these are all presentations of one kind or another. When a topic is important, human beings want to hear from you—directly. Presenting is not the best way to transfer a large body of facts to people, but it is the best way to make people sit up and take notice, to make them understand that you think something is extremely important, and to convince them that they should think it is important too. Presenting is a way of putting a spotlight on an idea that no other medium can ever match— not e-mail, not memos, not even TV or radio."

 

This course, titled the Public Speaking: The Ultimate Training Program will teach anyone how to be a confident and persuasive public speaker and presenter. This course covers the fundamentals of good speaking as well as finer points you can apply to your own personal endeavors. Most importantly, you will learn how to effectively rehearse every presentation for maximum impact. The course has one hour of video content and three hours of book reading. How long it takes you to do the rehearsal of presentations depends on how many times you practice each speech. This program will help you learn how to give speeches, presentations, and PowerPoint talks more effectively, for use in your professional or personal life.
