Enterprise Club FREE Event: Tips for Becoming a Confident Speaker & Communicator

Presenting information to a crowd is an art form. Some people are natural at swooning an audience but for the rest of us, giving presentations takes practice. The good news is, presenting confidently in front of a crowd; be it a small group at work, or in front of hundreds of people, does not have to be complicated. In fact, presenting is a very learnable skill.

Join us at the H&F Enterprise Club on Wednesday 13 July to grow your confidence in public speaking. As it’s the end of term will also be providing complimentary drinks and nibbles.
