Personal Presentation for Success: A Public Speaking Workshop

  • Tangerine Bank 221 Yonge Street Toronto, ON, M5B 1M4 Canada (map)

YWiB Toronto invites you to an interactive hands-on workshop where you will learn the tools and strategies that will help you to build trust, credibility and connect with small and large audiences. From basic speech structure and body language, to turning fear of speaking into fuel for your presentations, our facilitators will guide you through techniques to develop a presence that inspires others and commands attention.

Practical and interactive, the workshop content applies to a variety of situations such as telling your story, delivering a 30-second elevator speech, doing a work presentation, or pitching to a potential investor.

We are glad to have Roxana Radulescu and Jerako Wendt as our two expert facilitators for the two-session hands-on workshop, highlighting and demonstrating the basics and essentials of public speaking.
