Speak to Connect
Engage Your Audience for
Speaking Success
Most of us learned to make speeches or
other presentations in a formal, rhetorical
style. But the best speakers are ones who
create a human connection that is more
relational than rhetorical. Learn the steps
that effective speakers use to begin leading
an audience into engagement. Once you’ve
got them there, audiences listen differently
and stay attentive longer than if you merely
present to them. Class is highly structured
with exercises and activities to help you
develop a short presentation that you can
practice giving at the end, time permitting.
You’ll never speak before a group in the
same way again!
Ken Hensley
knows a
bit about engaging an audience as he
regularly delivers speeches to groups of
700 or so at the Highlands Ranch church
where he pastors. Join him for this fun,
interactive class that is perfect for any type
of presentation.

Reading People

Neuro-Linguistic Programming
Imagine how it would feel to have a deep

you dispel automatic or habitual responses.

more about themselves.
