A group of London Women Mean Business guests came along to the free Presentation Skills Workshop hosted by Amanda Wright at the Central School of Speech & Drama on 23rd August 2010 and had a fabulous time while learning some valuable skills.
The session was very interactive, with all of us taking part in various breathing exercises in addition to a little bit of acting and culminating in presenting a poem to the group. It could have been daunting, but with everyone in the room getting into the spirit, there was no need for anyone to feel embarrassed.
With only an hour to get through quite a lot of content, Amanda did a great job in giving us an overview of certain skills we can use when presenting to an audience. Even if presenting isn't a key part of your job, the skills learned can even be put into practice when presenting your 1 minute elevator pitch.
Central School of Speech & Drama offer some excellent courses in communication skills, with a different approach to many business training courses as they are using drama techniques. Funding may be available so take a look at the business courses on their website http://www.cssd.ac.uk/content/central-business
Thank you to the LWMB women who came along and made the evening such a great success with their enthusiasm, and a special thanks to Amanda for hosting the evening (we hope your audition went well!).
