Half of our clients say that they have chosen career paths to avoid public speaking or that their fear of public speaking has stopped them applying for promotions and other job opportunities. Many of these people hold mid-level and even senior roles but are not progressing because their fear is holding them back.
Supporting your employees by paying for public speaking training and/or giving them the time off work can produce a great return on investment - including improving staff retention, increasing internal promotions, and helping your organisation achieve diversity targets. Many organisations offer in-house public speaking courses which are great for boosting confidence and improving technique. However, you should also be aware that the people who are most in need will seek to avoid in-house courses because they do not want to embarrass themselves in front of their colleagues. Fear-less public classes are designed for people who want to be with a small group of people they don't know who feel the same way as they do. If you would like to know more about how Fear-less can help, please contact us. Catherine Syme is happy to talk to organisations about who our public courses are suitable for and how they work. |
