Some of the best public speaking opportunities come when we least expect them.
While some public speaking relies on preparation and rehearsal, Impromptu Speaking is about making the most of unplanned opportunities and being able to think on your feet.
Surprisingly, there are many things we can do to prepare for the unexpected, and this course is focussed on building skills, confidence and readiness to grab opportunities, whenever they arise.
