🎤 Elevate Your Speaking – One-Day Masterclass for Professionals Who Present

If public speaking is a big part of your role — whether you’re presenting to colleagues, pitching to clients, or delivering updates to large audiences you know the pressure to be clear, confident, and engaging every time.

The truth? Even experienced professionals can lose impact by waffling, overloading, or failing to connect with their audience especially in the fast-paced world of face-to-face meetings and live online presentations.

This one-day course with Mark Westbrook, founder of Public Speaking Coach Scotland, will change that.

With over 20 years’ experience coaching everyone from beginners to Oscar winners, Mark’s no-nonsense, practical approach focuses on behaviour change  giving you tools you can use immediately to transform your delivery.

You’ll learn how to:

✅ Build and sustain confidence in any speaking situation

✅ Structure your message so it’s clear, concise, and memorable

✅ Adapt your style for in-person and live online audiences

Use voice, body language, and presence to hold attention

✅ Speak your audience’s language to boost engagement

✅ Practise, receive feedback, and leave with a personal action plan

Who should attend:

For experienced professionals whose roles require them to regularly deliver formal presentations, pitches, or speeches internally or externally to medium or large audiences, either in person or via live online platforms.

This programme is not designed for casual or occasional speakers.
