This course is designed to help participants to excel on every stage, screen, and platform.

Join a small, personal group for this one-day course, led by Catherine McDonald, Director of Popping Orange Communications.

With limited numbers, you'll benefit from targeted, one-on-one focus designed to help you excel on every stage, screen, and platform. Whether it’s presenting in a boardroom, leading a live event or appearing on a podcast, TV or radio - the way you present yourself matters. This course will give you the tools, confidence, and strategies to speak with clarity and authenticity, connect with your audience, and command attention.

You’ll learn how to craft compelling narratives around your expertise, project that expertise on camera or stage, and handle interviews with confidence – navigating challenging questions with poise. We’ll discuss body language, outfit choices, and the subtle media techniques that will help you present yourself and your expertise in the best way possible.
