Public Speaking and the 3 C's

Public Speaking and the 3 C's: Confidence, Creativity & Comedy

The well-being of our employees, students, clients, instructors, and guests is our number one priority here at General Assembly. We are monitoring COVID-19 very carefully and are adjusting delivery of our programs.

Due to the current health concerns, all GA short-form events, workshops & bootcamps will temporarily be held online - including this one.

Registered participants will be notified 24 hours in advance of this program with information on how to log in to the Zoom Meeting Room and other tools you’ll need for the session. Registration for this offering will close 2 hours prior to the session start in order to allow all students ample opportunity to have the technology enabled.

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, CEO, teacher, or anyone whose job or desired job requires speaking in front of others, this class will help you gain the confidence, presence, and charisma to connect with your audience. You’ll learn how to reinvent text for more exciting and engaging delivery, think creatively, and produce memorable out-of-the-box presentations while having a great time in the process. Finally, you’ll learn techniques for keeping content fresh during repeat uses.

This class is taught by David Friedlander of GoldJam Creative, a company that teaches communication skills to companies and individuals. Clients include Spotify, Squarespace, Time Warner, Buzzfeed, Huge, and more.
