From filler to focus: sharpen your speaking skills.
We’ve all been there… listening to a presentation where the speaker’s “umms” and “errs” begin to outnumber their points.
These moments of disfluency, while totally human, can become a real distraction for your audience.
But if you struggle with these filler sounds when presenting, you’re far from alone, and it’s a habit that can absolutely be tamed. In fact, learning to pause purposefully and speak with intention isn’t just about removing “umms” and “errs.”
In this Skills Taster Session with Dom Kracmar, we will look at why we do it, and how we can start to sound clearer and more confident by developing one of the most powerful tools in your presenting toolkit: the ability to stop talking!
The programme was engaging, useful, relevant, clear and supportive. It opened my mind to new ideas, tools and effective methods, which in turn has refreshed my approach to work.
