Impromptu Speaking for Business Professionals - The Secret to Speaking Easily and Brilliantly on the Spot

Join the Event

Impromptu speaking is common. In business, you are often unexpectedly called on to "make a few marks" or brief remarks about a specific topic. The ability to speak well on short notice is a valuable skill.

Impromptu speaking challenges a speaker to develop an organized speech in a limited time. However, the thought of public speaking intimidates many people. This fear is often diminished when there is time to prepare and practice before getting up in front of an audience. What happens when there is no time to prepare and you are asked to speak without notice? This can make the most confident presenters nervous.
