Presentation Thinking™ #130. Leveraging your voice as presentation power with vocal coach, Michelle Siracusa
Michelle Siracusa puts new meaning to the phrase “your voice is your power”.
Michelle is a performer and vocal coach blending psychology with performance fundamentals to help folks be their most compelling when they speak.
From finessing tone, creating emphasis and adapting emotion per the audience you’re speaking to, vocal delivery can truly transform a presentation or talk.
Mikey and Molly work through several exercises live with Michelle to put into practice the small-but-mighty shifts in tone and emphasis that you can implement into your own work.
Being able to use your voice in the most effective way is not only great for performers but anyone in business as well. Whether you’re a keynote speaker or stepping into a leadership role where you’ll have to start giving more presentations, Michelle’s work can help you.
This is an episode for: performers, speakers, voiceover geeks & leaders of all kinds.
