You can count on your receiving immediate feedback from your coaches, experts and your fellow–trainees. Focused on content, design & delivery. Your moment to shine is at the live event, the conclusion of the programme.
During the first module, we get to work on developing content. Looking for how and at what point we can take your story to the next level. Every word, imagery and sentence is tested, weighed and adapted (often).
Okay, your content is set! But how do you support it to turn it into a performance instead of a presentation?
Lights off, spotlight on. You've worked hard for months to get to this moment. A full theater, your family, friends, and business connections. Your keynote is prepared in every aspect—content, design, and delivery. Now is the time to let go and enjoy. You didn't choose the most beautiful profession in the world for nothing. It's time to give the audience what you've developed. Call it a showcase, call it a try-out, one thing is certain... it’s a point of no return.
