In our public speaking online course you will be taken through an understanding of human speaking that works. We will destroy 70% of conventional wisdom. Then, armed with your new appreciation of success, whenever you speak, you will learn how to deliver from scripts and bullets, how to make the content of your talks easy for an audience to remember and how to handle questions well. We also look at the use of visual aids, particularly PowerPoint and Presi.
This is not a ‘rush through’ learning of information. The pace is deliberately controlled for you to engage and learn a ‘how to’ skill. You have eight weeks to keep using the programme. So, it can be used many times as a refresher in those two months.
John Miers, a former nuclear submarine commander and frequent media spokesman for the Royal Navy, has developed a radically different approach to speaking. It involves teaching you how to use emotional intelligence to engage a crowd, ensuring your message gets across and your words actually have an impact.
