Public Speaking and Presentation Skills for Introverts

Tired of feeling anxious when presenting yourself or your business to clients, or when hanging around all those back-slapping extroverts at cocktail parties? If so, this workshop is for you! By joining us you’ll learn:

• How to manage your public speaking nerves
• How to create the right communication mindset
• How to be authentic and likable in crowds
• How to look like you belong in the spotlight (because you do)
• How to tell a thoughtful and engaging story
• How to use Improv tricks to keep conversations flowing

Come on out for a knee-slapping good time as we partake in some fear fighting, improv pitching, and storytelling.
