What is VOICE & SPEECH Training?

At the turn of the last century, this training would have been called elocution lessons. What?!Think about THE KING'S SPEECH, or MY FAIR LADY and stay with me. Though the term elocution may have gone out of fashion, the need has never been greater because now we make first contact and first impression most often with just our voices. The ability to speak well builds leadership and executive presence with:

    connection,
                 confidence,
                              clarity,
                                     credibility.

Spoken Voice Training includes:

  • Overcoming Nerves
  • Positive, Rich Tone
  • Standard American Pronunciation
  • Diction and Articulation
  • Projection (volume)
  • Expressiveness and Flexibility

Clients receive the B. VOCAL workbook and practice CD for all spoken voice training.

Executive Communication  -- Effective Communicator Skills (in person, telephone or recorded media)

You prepare your content, but how do you prepare your SELF?  Are you passionate about being the best leader/speaker you can be?

Do you have executive presence (charisma)? Are you trusted?  Do you inspire? Does your voice or style of speech support the image you want to project, or undermine your message?

This intense, confidential, one-on-one training uses a digital DVD camcorder for immediate feedback to focus on your unique challenges and goals and give you practical techniques to raise all of your communication skills to the next level of success. 

Please call Cheryl to create a plan just for you: 612-210-9754.
