When Robyn Hatcher talks, people listen. And that comes as no surprise given her groundbreaking approach to breaking barriers for people who struggle with speaking in small and large groups. Hatcher has formulated a no-fail equation for mastering public speaking in her book, Standing Ovation Presentations (Motivational Press).
Hatcher reveals that communication is an art form in itself and that every person has an ActorType or some combination of the nine ActorTypes: Hero, Villain, Innocent, Sex Symbol, Curmudgeon, Whiz Kid, Super Hero, Buddy and Comic."Public speaking is, simply put, a constant in our everyday lives and it's just not an option to take things for granted," says Hatcher. "Whether you're giving the presentation of your career, coaching a soccer team, or running for PTA president - honing your communication skills and playing to your ActorType is your key to success."To complement her book, Hatcher also offers public speaking training in a variety of formats:• SpeakEtc. Vocal Workout (CD): Hatcher knows that the tone, quality and inflection of our speaking voice accounts for almost 40% of our communication. Now you can train at your own pace with this CD featuring voice training, breathing exercises, pronunciation practices, and articulation and intonation drills.Videos
