Talking with confidence is the key to success in life. Even the tech titans know that – LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner believes that it’s not coding that is the crucial skills gap of the future, it’s speaking well. In an AI world you still have to walk out on stage, into a meeting, or dial into a scary call to impress in the all-important moments. But there’s a catch-22 in modern communication. What if all that swiping, scrolling and selfie-obsession is making us worse when it comes to talking to real human beings? We need our devices to connect us, but when our time in the spotlight comes everything our gadgets have trained us to do (head down, focus inwards, breathing shallow) is wrong. So what’s the solution? Find Your Voice. There’s never been a better time to get your voice out, loud and clear, into the world. You stand out, you bring a voice of centred calm to a mad world – and it’s the best kind of ’soft power‘. Voice teacher and communication expert Caroline Goyder will help you to use your mind and body to speak with a genuine ‚fire-side chat‘ ease, whatever the situation. You’ll find out how to: · Build real connection when you talk to others at a time that is dizzyingly distracted · Harness the secrets of the body, breath and voice, even when our gadgets tempt us to stay stuck in our heads · Stand out as centred and self-possessed in a shouty world Whether you are planning a TEDX Talk, want more impact in meetings or just want to improve your all-round presence and influence, Find Your Voice will empower you to be bold, be present and captivate any audience.
