With the huge popularity surrounding TED talks, stand-up, podcasts and lectures on Youtube, the hunger for engaging, entertaining and intriguing public speakers is insatiable.

More than ever there are opportunities for writers, teachers, students and leaders of various stripes to spread their message, and make a living, by communicating in captivating and compelling ways.

With this in mind, I’m keen to spend the day with 40 people who'd like to develop their public speaking skills, learn how to cultivate a platform, and carve out a living from the technology of speech.

We’ll look at what makes a compelling talk and how to communicate it in a compelling way. This is a purposefully small workshop so that we can address the issues that attendees are facing. So whether you’re preparing for a Best Man’s speech, wanting to become a professional speaker, or preaching every week in front of thousands, we’ll be able to address your questions and concerns.

We'll work hard from 9:30am - 4:30pm. Then, for people who're able to stay, we'll relax, drink, and hang out in the evening.

Breakfast, lunch and party drinks provided.
