Barack Obama was vacationing on Martha’s Vineyard this summer with his family. They visited all types of places like the Chappy and Nancy’s Restaurant. I thought while I was there I would see if they would give me an audience. Although he posed with my daughter for a picture (haha) the meeting was not to happen!
Instead I was contacted by Tilting Lily Events Production and asked to tailor workshop around effective communication for the business women of Martha’s Vineyard. This allowed the company to open its services to a US audience.
Ipswich based Dukes Consultancy, specializes in building peoples’ confidence so that they have the courage and control to deliver without fear. Company founder Teresa Dukes took up the challenge and held a masterclass in "Finding Your Voice".
The event focussed on overcoming nerves, speaking without preparation, speech planning and structure. Ms Dukes said: "I am here to help everyday people enhance their speaking skills so that they too can be just as effective at communicating as Mr Obama".
