What’s your story?

We’re all storytellers. That might mean we literally create stories through novels or stand-up comedy, it might mean we have to think of something to fill in the box on our annual review at work, it might be as public facing as addressing a hall of attendees, or simply talking with one other person in the staff room.

Doesn’t mean it’s always easy, though. We’re all different, and a simple How Was Your Weekend can be as anxiety making as delivering a proposal for the next financial quarter - and indeed, some will find the second option much less of a challenge than the first.

I’d like to suggest that it doesn’t have to be difficult at all: that you can be compelling, interesting and inclusive - and most crucial, take the pressure off, and make public speaking something you enjoy.

In the next couple of weeks, I’m going to be presenting a free to attend webinar discussing five questions we have about public speaking: and I want to invite *you* to provide the questions.
