Would you like the skills of a master speaker? Don’t miss our November NSW/ACT Chapter meeting, where you’ll get extended access to one of the best presentation skills specialists in the country.

You’ll also mix and mingle with like-minded colleagues and share experiences of your journey – whether you’re an established professional speaker, an expert who speaks or someone who aspires to change lives through speaking.

What’s in store for you:

5.00pm Pre-session - Tales from the Trenches

Hosted by Leanne Wall and featuring Daniel Merza

Join us for our ever-popular Tales from the Trenches session; this month, 2018 Kerrie Nairn Scholarship winner Daniel Merza will demonstrate part of his signature keynote that’s currently being taken to school around NSW. You’ll have the chance to observe and give your feedback, and discuss key elements you can take away and apply in your own presentations.

THEN…

6.00pm – Part one of a spectacular double-headed session: Craft your keynote like the masters!

Michelle Bowden CSP

We welcome the brilliant Michelle Bowden CSP back to the NSW Chapter, due to popular demand!

Last time Michelle worked with our membership, she taught us how to follow the 5 Step Analysis Process to better draw out what we want to achieve when speaking to our various audiences.

She also showed us the underpinning structure for a masterful keynote so we meet the needs of all types of audiences.

In her return performance this November, Michelle will drill down and help us re-write (or write from scratch) the opening and close of our keynotes.

You’ll learn how to captivate your audiences, motivate them to pay attention and close for action. This is not to be missed!

Bring your keynote (or the idea for a new one) and be prepared to do some laughing, some learning and some seriously exciting work!
