Event Details


Does public speaking make you nervous?


Is your fear of initiating "difficult" conversations preventing you from making more money or achieving greater recognition and success in your career?


Do you believe your public speaking and interpersonal communication could improve with the right training and support?

 

If you answered YES to any of these questions, The Audacity to Speak Bootcamp is an effective and immediate solution to overcome your fear and achieve the career success you seek and deserve.

 

From September 25-September 26 (11:00AM-4:00PM each day), join speaking coach Alexia Vernon in New York City and learn to be the powerhouse speaker and leader you were meant to be – in your career and in your community. Alexia will also share key lessons from her new book, Awaken Your CAREERpreneur: A Holistic Road Map to Climb from Your Calling to Your Career (Joshua Tree, September 2010).

 

Whether you are an employee, entrepreneur, or leader in your community, this 10-hour weekend intensive will teach you the mindset, behaviors and skills necessary to show up to all speaking situations at 100% so that you can perform at 100%.

 


In the 2-day intensive, you will have the opportunity to:

  • Identify and eliminate negative thought patterns and energy blocks around speaking to build the foundation to communicate across contexts with confidence, clarity, and compassion

 

  • Experiment with a range of individual and group exercises to transform nervousness to calm, warm-up your speaking instrument, and find your authentic speaking style

 

  • Learn best practices for "difficult speaking situations" (e.g., salary and fee negotiations, giving and receiving feedback, and delivering a persuasive argument)

 

  • Reduce your individual, ineffective speaking and non-verbal communication habits and minimize vocalized thinking (e.g., um, like, so, but, you know)

 

  • Develop your own customized speech or workshop

 

  • Connect to a tribe of other success-minded women

 

Registration is capped at 10 to ensure each participant receives ample one-on-one support. Reserve your spot today!


**As a special bonus, the first 3 women who register will receive a FREE copy of Alexia's 2-Disc Audio CD, The Speaker Workout ($25 value)**
