DELIVERING PRESENTATIONS THAT MAKE YOU AND YOUR MESSAGE
MEMORABLE:
Using Your Passion and Creativity To Become a Powerful Speaker
Speaker: Ritzya Mitchell, The Drama Coach
In today's world, leaders have to be powerful speakers. They
know how to grab attention, keep attention, and influence
those around them. They have a vision and passion, and know
how to inspire others to action.
In this fun, engaging, interactive session, you will learn
how to apply creativity and passion to your presentations to
become a more effective communicator.
You will--
o Overcome fear of presenting and public speaking
o Have renewed confidence in your communication skills
o Learn tools and techniques for creating a memorable
message
o Deliver your message with passion
o Feel energized about who you are and what you do
Speaker: Ritzya Mitchell, The Drama Coach, is the go-to
person when it comes to compelling, memorable presentations.
A seasoned performer and entrepreneur, she brings the
perfect blend of professionalism and pizzazz to her clients,
both as an exciting speaker and as a results-oriented coach
and facilitator. Her warm, down-to-earth style and
commanding presence immediately draw people in as she
inspires her audiences and clients to come out of their
shells and shoot for the stars.
Clients of The Drama Coach range from CEOs, authors, and
entrepreneurs to politicians and lawyers, with a few
high-achieving teenagers just for fun. The outcome is the
same for all types of clients: confident and passionate
communication through which the unique, authentic style of
the individual shines.
Ritzya Mitchell's Web site, http://www.thedramacoach.com,
has testimonials, pictures, and tips on how to achieve
success through being the best communicator you can be.
