UPCOMING PRESENTATION MASTERCLASSES
Viva's monthly masterclasses allow you to develop your voice in a way that is directly applicable to your professional setting and communication demands. Our masterclasses are also available to be delivered in-house at your school or organisation, and can be tailored to meet the needs of your staff. 7 Seconds for a Strong Impression
Research shows that first impressions are made within the fist 7 seconds of meeting someone. Expressing your ideas clearly with confidence in those 7 seconds can be difficult with underlying nerves and anxieties. This masterclass will help you develop strategies to maximise those first 7 seconds, explore ways of mastering both verbal and nonverbal communication to leave a lasting impression. We will also explore ways of navigating the first minute and beyond, understanding how voice and language can ignite the first interaction to put you on a path to career success. This masterclass is suited for job candidates preparing for interviews, mastering networking events and meeting new colleagues, as well as social or other professional situations.
