HOLD THE ROOM WITH YOUR SPEECH | Live Storytelling Exercises for Speakers

​Don't just learn about storytelling. Get up, speak, receive feedback, and do it again!

​Join us for a highly interactive workshop facilitated by Dorothea Hendriks and Gobinder Gill, featuring practical speaking exercises designed to help you capture attention, deliver compelling stories, and connect with your audience.

​You'll have the opportunity to deliver a short 2–3 minute speech, receive personalized feedback, refine your approach, and put your improvements into practice.
