Rhetoric for Women - intensive course for woman who want to have more say, adopt the right tone and be more assertive! 

The popular training programme “Rhetoric for Women” that Nina Buchaus conducts has welcomed over 500 participants since it started in 2012. The difference between male and female communication can be an obstacle or an asset. Don’t miss this training that gives you concrete tools for surer and more professional impression! 

In this training programme, you learn to get your message across at meetings and oral presentations – skilfully, clearly and intelligibly. 

A professional rhetoric is one that can manage challenging situations during meetings and presentations. Break ineffective habits that often make you feel limited in your role with rhetorical tricks. During the training, women will get the chance to learn how to deliver their message assertively and intelligibly. You’ll also learn how to feel comfortable when giving, for example, oral presentations. By learning persuasion techniques, you’ll quickly radiate more assertiveness and self-assurance. This is something you can make use of inside and outside the office, not least in different types of negotiations.

• How to overcome stage fright – How can nerves and stress be handled in a successful way?
• How to put together a sales presentation
• Argument and negotiate your affairs in a better way with three arguments
• Body language – voice – mimicry – eye contact – subliminal messages
• Practice simple voice techniques such as the art of the pause and variations of strength to emanate trustworthiness and clarity
• Male and female language – what are the differences and how to make use of them based on situation and purpose?
• How to master two strong characters – the open character and the credible character
• Be aware of your tics; repetitive communicative signals that distort and stand in the way of what you are saying

Coaching and direct feedback – During the course, all participants get personal feedback about their presentations, which is both challenging and developmental. You are videoed and analysed on one occasion and get constructive feedback to help you achieve the best results with your own development.
