We've all seen talks that don't go well.

But it doesn't have to be that way.

Public speaking is a skill. One that can be learned and refined. Whether you're leading a church, representing a ministry, or working in a secular setting, your ability to communicate matters--to your mission and to those you serve.

Learn TED-style public speaking skills from a TEDx speaker coach.

Whether you're speaking in ministry or marketplace settings, the process you'll learn in this course will improve your ability to communicate in a clear, compelling, and confident manner.

What you'll learn

  • How to craft a memorable talk

  • How to hook the audience's attention—and keep it

  • Principles of slide design / using visual aids

  • Polishing delivery and how to reduce/manage “stage fright”

  • A repeatable, end-to-end process for developing future talks (and you'll finish the course with a talk that's ready to deliver!)

  • ...all through a lens of faith.
