 “If one is forever cautious, can one remain a human
being?”
Those are the words of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, the
Russian literary giant who died last month at age 89.
He won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1970 and was a
brave dissident who spoke out against the Soviet regime.
Anyone who wants to be a great public speaker should
heed his words. And while you’re at it, take a moment
and read his obituary. Here
is the one that ran in the New York Times.
Like Solzhenitsyn, the best speakers say something
important to their listeners. The best speakers take a
position.
In our workshops, we help you learn how create
presentations that tell where you stand on an issue. We
focus
on two areas:
-
How to organize a message that is tight, simple and
focused on audience needs.
Speechworks teaches a simple Formula for focusing on
listener needs. We believe that if you have strong
content, you will be more confident when you get up to
speak.
-
How to deliver the message in a style that connects
with the listeners.
We focus on eye contact, gestures, voice energy, and
facial energy. Our coaches will give you private
feedback on where you most need to improve.
Consider attending an upcoming workshop. We’ll help you
learn how to stake out a position.
