Course Description
The goal of public speaking is to build rapport and influence with your audience through a carefully crafted message. Having influence hinges on your ability to connect with your audience this way. People learn and retain better when presented with a message that’s both verbal and visual. They also develop a deeper emotional bond with a presenter if they believe that person sees and understands them. Your ability to craft a message that’s clear, credible, heartfelt, and visual will transform any group you’re speaking to into an engaged and emotionally connected audience.
In these lessons on Persuasive Speaking, you will learn how to build a powerful bond with your audience through structured storytelling and imagery to complement and enhance your message. If your message is verbally, visually, and emotionally appealing, you’ll create a strong connection between yourself and your audience. And that will help you to persuade your audience towards whatever point you’re making.
