Public Speaking Coach

Project details

What we need
  • Personalized feedback and up to 5 coaching sessions with one member of the Organization
  • Document outlining strengths, weaknesses, and suggested next steps and/or resources for the member
Additional details

My program team needs to improve its presentation and meeting management skills to increase our outreach to members and create more meaningful educational sessions

What we have in place
  • We currently have a large selection of topics, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have existing educational sessions established, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $8,660 , allowing us to use staff to provide some or our programming and bring in more experts with the saved budget dollars

In order to best serve our community, we want to increase our internal skill sets to expand our program offerings
