Learning to speak with confidence!
“If the minds of men were laid open, we should see but little difference between that of the wise man and that of the fool. The difference is that the first knows how to pick and cull his thoughts for conversation… whereas the other lets them all indifferently fly out in words” – Joseph Addison
Whenever we see a new person around us, we start speculating about the kind of personality he would have, the sort of voice he would have, and whether he would be intelligent or dumb. But as soon as the person opens his mouth, his personality is revealed! It is true indeed, you are what you speak.
Confidence in speaking reflects a confident personality — and that you can achieve with the power of Public Speaking!
Public Speaking, quite contrary to its name, is not just about speaking in front of the general public. In fact, public speaking is really about speaking your mind, your thoughts and your views — it is all about being yourself. A good public speaker is basically a good communicator — regardless of whether he is speaking to a crowd of one hundred thousand people, or to one single person, his confidence is always very high. The reason? Very simple — when a person learns the art of Public Speaking and practices in front of a larger audience, he gains confidence. This confidence in turn helps him in communicating with any kind of group or person for that matter.
Globally, more and more people are getting to know about the importance and benefits of learning Public Speaking. For unlike learning English language (which most of us know), Public Speaking deals with solving the problem of hesitation or shyness people have when they have to speak with other people or a large group.
Public Speaking not only facilitates giving public speeches, but it also helps you in your educational and professional life. Whether you are giving an interview, or making a formal presentation, your confidence in Public Speaking is the power that will make you stand out from the rest.
A 10-day workshop on Public Speaking, starting from, July 10, 2006 for two age groups 13-17 years and 18-above is being launched by Anees Hussain’s centre. The workshop will be conducted and facilitated by Mr Basim Waheed, who promises an exciting workshop for those who want to learn the art of Public Speaking. The charges for the workshop are Rs4,500, including the cost of all handouts. Participants will get a chance to learn methods of inculcating confidence and also practicing it in front of their workshop colleagues.
Course completion certificates will also be awarded to all participants at the end of the workshop. The timings are: for ages 13-17 years (4:00-5:30 pm) and ages 18-above (6:00-7:30 pm). For registration and more information, contact: 021 – 5893385 / 5388455.
