This is not your average public speaking course!
It is a specialist course for those who already have some SPEAKING
SKILLS AND WANT TO HONE THEIR PERSUASIVE COMMUNICATION, craft a
compelling message and make a difference in the world.
Suited to advocates, influencers and CHANGEMAKERS OF ALL STRIPES, this
PARTICIPATION DRIVEN COURSE will challenge and extend your speaking
skills, to help amplify your message.
Packed with advanced techniques and communication master-skills, this
course also emphasises WEEKLY SPEAKING PRACTICE with INDIVIDUAL
COACHING AND FEEDBACK.
This course is a SIX WEEK EVENING SERIES, equivalent to three full
days of training. It is held from 5.30PM-9.00PM ON WEDNESDAY EVENINGS.
CONTENT
LANGUAGE OF PERSUASION 29 JULY
We communicate in many different ways and our actual content is only
part of the story.
This workshop looks at how our voice, choice of words and body
language all influence our message. We also look at the role of
inclusive language in engaging or putting off others.
AUTHENTIC CREDIBILITY 5 AUGUST
Audiences respond best to speakers who display passion and confidence,
balanced with authenticity and humility. By contrast, dogma and
judgement tend to be off-putting and turn people off our message. This
workshop looks at how to achieve this balance and cultivate authentic
credibility in our spoken communications.
PSYCHOLOGY OF INFLUENCE 12 AUGUST
It takes more than facts to shift someone elses thinking. Often we are
more influenced by factors such as rapport, dissonance, and the
emotional impact of an argument.
This week we examine a psychologically informed approach to
influential speaking.
STRATEGIC STORYTELLING 19 AUGUST
This component looks at why stories are so much more compelling than
facts, and how you can put a human face on the message you are trying
to share.
We will learn how to identify appropriate stories from the real world
and use them to augment our message.
AUDIENCE PERSPECTIVE 26 AUGUST
We explore how you can get inside your audiences heads and learn to
see the argument from their viewpoint. From this angle, we can
strengthen our message and communicate to engage.
ADVANCED PERSUASION TOOLS 2 SEPTEMBER
This final week refines and reinforces the skills we have covered
across the course. It also introduces some final tools and techniques
to further enhance your speaking and call others to action.
SKILL LEVEL AND PREREQUISITES
While there are no formal prerequisites, it is expected that
participants have some past speaking experience and are familiar with
the basics of managing nerves, stance, projection and eye contact,
along with how to develop content and structure a speech.

brush up on these things are invited to attend our one day course
Introductory Public Speaking, prior to commencing this course.
