Speaking Skills
Improve Your Public Speaking, Interviews, & PresentationsExpress yourself!
Why Do I Need Speaking Skills?
You’re not a sales guy. You don’t pitch clients all day, and you haven’t been invited to give a TED Talk next week.
Why the heck do you need speaking skills?
Because humans love to communicate, and being able to get your message across clearly and concisely is the ultimate transferable skill.
Interviewing for a new job? You need to be able to answer boring stock questions, sure…but also respond on the fly if the interviewer asks you something crazy.
Giving a presentation? You’ll be more effective if you learn how to quit reading off the slides and start engaging your audience like a performer.
Stuck in Zoom meetings all day? Being able to make yourself heard can be the difference between plodding along in the background and shining like the superstar you are.
And, of course, there’s public speaking – the big daddy of speaking challenges. Getting comfortable in front of a crowd takes time and effort, but it can pay off in a big way by making you more confident and better able to think on your feet.
What Can You Help Me With?
Interviews
Whether you’re interviewing for a dream job or talking with a potential new client, being confident during a 1:1 discussion makes all the difference. We’ll go over both general interview strategies and do dress rehearsals for specific interviews, as needed.
Webinars
Delivering webinars, online coaching, YouTube tutorials, and digital course videos are all key parts of a modern Constellation Career, especially for consultants and service providers. Having an engaging speaking style is essential to standing out from the crowd. We’ll hone your personal voice and delivery to make every webinar a must-attend event.
Presentations
You dread having to make another boring PowerPoint deck and present at the monthly all-hands meeting. We’ll go over ways to simplify deck development and make your presentations more engaging – for you and your audience.
Meetings
Whether it’s on Zoom or in person, managing to get your point across clearly and quickly in a meeting is critical. We’ll practice making your voice heard.
Public Speaking
Everyone’s biggest fear, right? We’ll work through that block and get you calm and confident in front of a crowd…yes, even during the Q&A session!
