. . . a proven program for effective speaking

Express Communications' highly trained instructors provide one-day, small group seminars designed for anyone called upon to speak, whether to an individual, to a small group or even to an auditorium filled with 500+ people.

You will receive personal coaching in a very small group. The coaching focuses on building speaking skills, beginning with basic general skills and ending with specific, sophisticated ones. You will be able to observe and monitor your growth during each segment throughout the day.

Your dramatically increased level of confidence will complement a more polished and effective personal speaking style. Finally, you will master the skills on constructing presentations quickly and efficiently.

This program has never failed. No one has ever left it frustrated or dissatisfied with the results. Even those with the cynical attitudes or those with deep fears about speaking have completed the day pleased with their results.
