Result
Are you ready to become a more confident and engaging public speaker?
In this course, Gerben Tuin draws on his multidisciplinary background of physics and performing arts to help you reframe your approach to public speaking, develop verbal and non-verbal communication skills for public speaking, and learn how to:
- use logic and emotion to engage your audience;
- project authority on your topic;
- manage nervousness and stress;
- understand audience responses and adapt your communication in real-time to keep them listening.
Content
Rather than considering presenting as a linear model of communication (unidirectional transfer of information from sender to receiver), you will learn how to understand and navigate it as a transactional model (reciprocal sending and receiving of messages).
In doing so, you level up your toolkit when it comes to public speaking, and go beyond ‘’tell them what you will say, say it, and tell them what you have said’’!
Three evening workshops of three hours focusing on:
- Employing principles of ethos, pathos and logos to engage your audience;
- Designing and interacting with slides or other aids;
- Engaging audience imagination through visuals, body positioning, eye contact, and hand gestures;
- Dealing with nerves, obligation and boredom;
- Managing and responding to your audience;
- Prioritising and structuring content.
Duration and time investment
15 hours: 3 x 3 hour workshops (12) and 3 x preparation tasks of 1 hour (3)
