From September to October, our colleagues had the opportunity to take part in a three-session public speaking course, led by coach Robert de Groof (PhD), and assisted by Irina Bondarenco (Toastmasters Club member and trainer). The sessions’ focus was providing a progressive and friendly environment where participants can master their skills and increase their knowledge on public speaking. At the end of the course, the following goals were set – build presence, confidence, and authority, develop new-found confidence in public speaking, as well as the ability to captivate an audience. Our 8 colleagues embarked on this journey, left their comfort zone, and started mastering the art of oratory 🙂

Along the three sessions, the participants had the chance to present their speeches, which were recorded on video and then analyzed together with the mentors. The course proved to be fun, informative, and very practical. At the end, each of them received a confirmatory diploma to certify their efforts during the three sessions of public speaking.

We hope our course helped our colleagues become more confident and efficient in their communication! Here’s to many more similar courses to come 🙂
