Communication skills: Learn to sharpen your vocal presence

with Lauri Smith

Is your voice enhancing or limiting your impact? That’s a question you may never have asked yourself before — And it’s one of the most vital questions everyone must ask. Your vocal presence may be the bottleneck that prevents you from achieving your goals and creating the life you desire.

One of our most powerful tools as change-makers, entrepreneurs and leaders is the resonance of our voices. In fact, our vocal presence is our primary instrument for navigating the world.

And yet, aside from professionally trained actors, there is very little training out there related to the voice — until now. During this highly interactive workshop Lauri Smith will show you how unleash your innate, unique charisma in order to enroll others in your cause and maximize your impact.
