Though a few of us have the gift of gab – most of us need to learn some tips and tricks to improve our impromptu speaking ability. This class will explore some of the best points of leverage for you to improve your speaking ability – such as how to tame anxiety, reframe priorities, structure spontaneity and sharpen your focus. Come prepared to engage and practice some of the tips and tricks that will be presented. Book by Matt Abrahams can be read before class but not required.
