Is fear of speaking holding you back?

This workshop will change your life!  Sandra Zimmer guides you through her revolutionary Zimmer Method for transforming fear of public speaking and stage fright tension into a natural presence. It is different from traditional public speaking courses. Instead of forcing mechanical speaking techniques on you, Sandra Zimmer helps you release the tensions, anxities and physical sensations that distract you from sharing your ideas, talents and expertise.  The result is that you feel comfort to be yourself and confidence to share your ideas freely in front of a group.

• Release the tension of being the center of attention
• Be comfortable in your skin in front of others
• Develop a palpable sense of presence
• Create a genuine connection with listeners & audiences
• Think on your feet in front of others
• Practice sharing your ideas, talents or expertise in a compelling & engaging manner

Leadership Presence & Persuasion

A Workshop for Executives, Leaders and Emerging Leaders with Sandra Zimmer

Business is moving from a practice and posture of management through hierarchical power to a process of leadership through persuasion. The role of leadership is to have ideas, to persuade others to your ideas and to inspire others to give their best.

The Leadership Presence & Persuasion Program addresses how you actually develop the presence of a leader. This workshop also teaches how to deliver a message persuasively that engages and compels attention through speaking with emotional authenticity. When your presence is authentic and honors everyone in the group, others will follow with trust and loyalty. They feel confidence and permission to assert their ideas, insights and expertise.

Sandra Zimmer guides you through a hands-on experiential program to connect you with your natural leadership presence and ability to speak persuasively from your heart. This program combines proven exercises and techniques from public speaking, storytelling, psychology of persuasion, theatre skills and awareness of performance energy states so you experience a new level of leadership presence.

You Will Learn To:

• Exhibit a strong, capable, professional presence in front of others
• Develop comfort in your skin in front of others
• Be present in the moment and think on your feet
• Make genuine connection with listeners so they feel included as you speak
• Understand 9 kinds of verbal content that add up to a persuasive message
• Practice crafting and delivering a persuasive message

RESULTS of This Experience:
