Rosalie Hoskins, Hub Manager Wired Sussex
We were lucky enough to get Steve to visit some of the Wired Sussex team and share his fun and practical approach to finding your own brand of presenting. With Steve’s guidance, we made sure to give dull PowerPoint slideshows and monotone speeches a wide berth and instead, were given practical tips on finding our own tone of voice. My favourite part of the session was getting positive reinforcement for the ways we were already naturally communicating well. This provided us with the confidence to fearlessly practice presenting to each other during the session. Which for someone that struggles with nerves when it comes to public speaking is completely unheard of! Myself and my colleagues came out of the workshop buzzing with excitement at the prospect of putting our new speaking skills to action. Would heartily recommend to anyone looking to improve their communication skills- the tips you come away with can be applied in many different scenarios, from presenting to big crowds to making sure your voice isn’t lost in team meetings. Fantastic!
