Build your public speaking confidence by understanding the nature of your discomfort.
Overview
Communication is a critical skill for leaders. And as challenges facing higher education today grow more complex and communication methods more diverse, the need to feel confident in your ability to speak publicly is more essential than ever.
Join us for a virtual training uniquely designed to help you understand, and move through, your discomfort with public speaking by exploring these topics in depth:
- Evaluating what discomfort with public speaking looks like for you
- Exploring the concept of Communication Apprehension—the fear or anxiety that comes from real or anticipated communication with others, as a framework to understand what is causing your discomfort
- Discovering a variety of tactics used to create a calming practice
- Designing your own calming practices to use when preparing for public speaking

What Does Public Speaking Discomfort Mean to You?
- We will begin as our instructor helps you to identify the ways that discomfort shows up mentally and physically when you are faced with public speaking.
Leveraging the Communication Apprehension Framework
- When you recognize the physiological underpinnings of fear and anxiety and why public speaking creates discomfort, you can use that awareness to create strategies to build confidence and comfort. We will build upon the knowledge of how discomfort with public speaking manifests with a practical framework.
Developing Your Own Calming Practices
- Find ways to be in control of your reactions to the discomfort from public speaking, rather than letting fear and anxiety control you. We will discuss different tactics to reduce this discomfort, and you will leave with a personalized calming practice that you can use to create comfort with future public speaking situations.
