Confidence building

For years, Tom Wang hated being called on to make a presentation at work. He lacked confidence in his speech and feared that no one understood him. The truth is, having just moved from Hong Kong four years ago, his accent was difficult to understand at times. After a fourteen-week training program with Corporate Speech Solutions, Mr. Wang no longer hated those presentations. He actually felt proud to be able to speak clearly and to be understood by all.

Sara Jeffers got many complaints from clients telling her she didn’t speak loud enough over the phone, and they often needed her to repeat what she was saying. As a result, Sara often avoided making the calls and was slow to return phone calls to clients. This was not looked at favorably by the company. She met with Corporate Speech Solutions and learned how not just to project her voice over the telephone but to project self-confidence as well.

People that lack confidence often shy away from important tasks. They may avoid meetings, or phone calls or presentations which are necessary to advance in their careers. If your speech is causing a lack of confidence because you do not speak clearly, you tend to mumble, you speak too fast, or you get too scared to speak in front of a group, you could benefit from speech training and practice.
