I’ve run 100’s of workshops in a lot of different countries, and when I ask “Do you like the sound of your own voice?” at most, one hand goes up, but it’s usually zero.
Establishing your credibility is one gap in a ‘pitch toolkit’ that I see regularly when coaching people, especially entrepreneurs, because they equate it with ‘bragging’ or ‘showing off’.
I had such an engaging and entertaining morning delivering my CLPD accredited ‘Storytelling For Business’ workshop to Hourani & Partners.
I was delighted to run my flagship workshop ‘Storytelling For Business’ to the Evolve People Network in Dubai, an amazing group of HR, L&D and talent development professionals working in the UAE.
I’m blessed to get such wonderful feedback from my clients…and sometimes I like to share.
Every single voice and presence session I deliver is practical.
As part of my process of preparing for a workshop, I always try to find a quiet spot.
Thank you Serap Zel, PhD Zel for inviting me to appear on your Uplifting Leaders podcast.
It’s not just standing in front of an audience – on stage, in a boardroom, behind a lectern.
