In an age of information overload, you have to do something special to make your message stand out. If you want to be heard, it is not enough to just send more emails, or improve your social media – you have to engage and inspire at human level. There’s no more effective way to influence people, than standing up and speaking from the heart.
Stemming from the success of the Public Speaking Workshop organised in July at Galadari Hotel, by the Rainbow Institute of Communication and English, a follow up workshop is scheduled for Tuesday 20 October at the Galadari Hotel.
The dynamic Rainbow Institute trainers, led by eminent university academic and powerful public speaker, Dr. Mahim Mendis, will enable you to develop the confidence and polish to inspire your audiences during this high impact full day public speaking workshop.
Through this activity based training, participants develop their analytical skills, learn to brainstorm, get over their nervousness and master techniques of making powerful presentations.
The forthcoming workshop is packed with exciting new learning and activities. Hence, this is also an excellent opportunity for those who have attended the Rainbow Institute intensive trainings and one day workshops on public speaking in the past, to brush up their skills and enjoy a full day of activity and fun with public speaking.
