Public Speaking Through Theater

In this workshop, our professor will draw parallels between performing a play and communicating in a company. Every day, you speak before your colleagues, your board or your investors. Every presentation, meeting, and interview is like being on stage. Like actors, managers must prepare for each performance.

Acquire and practice effective verbal and non-verbal communication skills.

• Use your breath, body, and voice to maximize impact and presence during your presentations
• How to control anxiety
• The connection with the audience and the different stages
• Connect with audiences in any presentation
• Content structuring, the proper use of visual aids, and communication trend
• How to rehearse (the mirror, time control,…)
