Public Speaking Masterclass

The fear does not leave. It just stops being in charge.

All turnshops

Training & Facilitation

Who It Is For

  • Leaders who speak at town halls, conferences and to the press
  • Professionals stepping onto a stage for the first time
  • Anyone whose ideas deserve a better delivery than they get

How It Runs

  • Two days, in person, on a stage, filmed
  • Everyone speaks repeatedly; coaching is individual and in front of the room
  • English and Urdu

What It Turns On

  1. 01

    Build a talk with a spine, so you can lose your place and still arrive.

  2. 02

    Use voice, pause and stillness deliberately.

  3. 03

    Walk on and open without asking the room for permission.

  4. 04

    Take the microphone at short notice and be worth listening to.

The broad outline

  1. 01

    In context

    Everyone takes the stage cold on day one. Filmed, before any instruction.

  2. 02

    Know

    The spine of a talk. One idea, a structure you can walk, and an ending written before the middle.

  3. 03

    Go

    The instrument: breath, voice, pace, pause, stillness and the use of a stage as space rather than a pacing lane.

  4. 04

    Show

    Repeated rounds — prepared, then impromptu, then hostile Q&A — each one filmed and coached.

  5. 05

    Close

    A talk you are actually giving, performed for the room.

What You Are Left Holding

  • A real talk, built and performed
  • Footage from the first hour and the last
  • An impromptu structure for the microphone you did not expect
