Happy Endings 6: The Emperor's New Zoom

Happy Endings 6: The Emperor's New Zoom

Your sixth bonus episode: we've all been there...   In our final tale from the strange annals of storyteller, Ges Ray, we meet Monty—a man on a mission to be more beautiful, more successful and more photogenic than his peers. Yet, this cautionary tale is one for anybody who has ever felt trepidation at the thought of a Zoom call!

YOUR VOICE—is instrumental to your delivery as a Speak Performer!

When presenting do you squeak like a mouse, sound like a heavy breather or boom like a bombastic Old Etonian? The tongue, the teeth, the tip of the lips... all critical elements in presenting magnificently. Yet very few presenters pay attention to their critical instrument for delivery—the voice! Ges Ray helps you unlock the power of your voice to enchant your audience in new, deeper ways! G'ru and the other motley crew of Speaking—or an approximation thereof certainly know how to use their voices in the most disturbing ways. A VODCAST EDITION IS ALSO AVAILABLE: Some things just have to be seen to be believed!

Happy Endings 5: Ruben Sel

Your fifth bonus episode: go on, let your hair down with this fabulous retelling.   Our story tonight is a towering (and somewhat hairy) tale—one of tragic ends that are split between top and bottom, up and down. Confused? Don’t worry; order a takeout meal and all will be revealed!

No one wants to be spoken to as an anyone! How to present for each individual.

"My talk is for everyone, anyone can benefit from it!" So says the speaker who can't be bothered to think about the variety of people in the audience: stressed, relaxed, excited, successful, wishing they were anywhere else, cynical, hopeful, creative, realistic, and so on. Far too many presenters think the information is the only factor in their presentation. Ges demonstrates that nuanced understanding of your audience and approaching your presentation with respect for this diversity helps you deliver what your audience truly seeks... Not information, but an experience that creates transformation. And as usual, the motley crew of Speaking—or an approximation thereof do their worst to sabotage your best efforts...
