What makes a talk truly resonate? As we gear up for our main event in November, our community gathered at The Social Hub for a masterclass in the art of public speaking. “Speak to Inspire” was more than just a workshop; it was an exploration of clarity, authenticity, and the courage required to share ideas that matter.
Insights from the Experts:
We were privileged to host two incredible guest speakers who helped us deconstruct the anatomy of an inspiring message:
- Dirceu da Silva: As an international keynote speaker and TEDx trainer with 25 years of experience, Dirceu shared his framework for speaking with impact. He challenged us to find a voice that is not just heard, but memorable.
- Ana Denis: A communications trainer who provided a fascinating look at how our identity—including gender dynamics—can influence our experience with public speaking. She empowered participants to embrace their unique voices and start enjoying the stage.
A Space for Practice and Growth:
Through guided exercises and open discussion, attendees reflected on how to make a message clear and authentic. Whether preparing for a TEDx stage or simply wanting to improve everyday communication, everyone walked away with practical tools to refine their “art of the speak.”
The evening concluded with our signature networking session, where ideas were shared as freely as the drinks.
