So many individuals have messages to share with
the world - their colleagues, the community or the church. But, if they stand
in a room with just five people, they tremble, sweat on their palms or even pee
in their pants. It's the fear of public speaking. It's one of the worst fears
in human history. However, this fear can be cured, not by taking coffee or
narcotics, but by effective wholesome strategies that work. Are you in this
category? This is your chance.
Join these speakers at SPEAKING PROPS, Abuja, as they facilitate a session each on OVERCOMING THE FEAR OF PUBLIC SPEAKING. SPEAKING
PROPS is a Masterclass for public speakers & presenters. A faculty of 6
speakers has been assembled to help you polish your speaking edge in 6
