Purpose

For many, speaking in public is a scary prospect.  However, it can also be a great opportunity to display one's credibility and increase one's profile, while delivering knowledge, insight, and value to others.   This highly practical, interactive workshop will unlock the secrets to successful speaking, whether at conferences or to similarly large audiences.  It will be particularly valuable for bhbia2024 Annual Conference speakers.  

What can you expect?

The training comprises a group training session in the morning, with each delegate then returning for a 30-minute individual feedback session at a mutually convenient time during the afternoon - so please make sure you are free for the whole morning and have some availability in the afternoon too. We'll look at subjects such as the importance of preparation, of clarity of message and purpose, and of one's body language, voice, and energy levels.  As well as the psychological and physical, we'll also look at the key practical elements of powerful presentations, including how to engage your audience, handle questions and take control of the logistics.  You will also get the opportunity to deliver, and then receive tailored, 1:1 feedback on your performance. 

The course is being run for us by professional trainer Daniel Wain, who won the John Wheeler Award for best conference session at the BHBIA 2021 Annual Conference and has run several successful BHBIA training courses since then. 

This workshop is the first of a series of three that Danny will host for the BHBIA - all centred on enhancing your Business Skills in order to be valued as a true business partner. Other workshops featured in the year are: 

• Passing the So What Test 
• Delivering the Sizzle, not just the Sausage - effective presentation delivery skills

Who should attend?

The workshop is aimed at those speaking in public – either on a regular basis to further their skills, or for those who will be doing this for the first time. This can involve planning for any audience size, however it may be of particular use to those speaking at bhbia2024 where audience and room sizes are large and AV equipment will be used.
