SUMMARY:Confidently Off the Cuff Masterclass – 20th Nov
DESCRIPTION:The art of thinking fast and speaking spontaneously.\nAs AI becomes more common in everyday work, many people rely on it to prepare messages, and presentations. What happens when you have the perfectly prepared presentation and then someone asks you a question? The ability to think and speak clearly in the moment is becoming even more valuable. It shows your judgement, presence and personality in real time. Confident impromptu speaking can help you stand out where a genuine, responsive contribution can make a lasting impression.\nWork conversations rarely follow a script. Whether you’re doing a presentation, asked to share an update, respond to a challenging question or speak up in a meeting, the ability to think and speak clearly in the moment can help you make a stronger impression.\nIn this 3 hour small group masterclass, you’ll practise speaking with confidence without relying on a script. You’ll learn how to organise your thoughts quickly, stay authentic under pressure and adapt your delivery to the situation. We’ll also explore how spontaneous speaking can feel more responsive and human than rehearsed delivery, while recognising when preparation and structure still matter.\nLearning Outcomes\nBy the end of the masterclass, participants will be able to:\n* Respond to unexpected questions using Neil’s Question Triangle technique and speaking opportunities with greater connection.\n* Organise their thoughts quickly into a clear, concise response.\n* Use voice, pace, body language and presence to make their message more engaging.\n* Stay authentic and composed when speaking under pressure.\n* Adapt their approach for meetings, presentations and workplace conversations.\n* Choose when to speak spontaneously and when to prepare or use a script.\n
