What they’ve said about the Speakout programs and CEO Anne B. Freedman
When Anne B. Freedman of Speakout presented her program on public speaking to our members, the response from participants was nothing but positive. She made the learning practical for all attendees, regardless of industry or speaking experience. Anne kept the group engaged and inspired to move out of their comfort zones of public speaking.
I recommend Anne’s programs for any organization seeking to improve their members’ confidence in public speaking and to learn techniques to effectively deliver their message.
Anne’s session for the Banco do Brasil’s Americas All Hands Meeting was quite inspirational. We received excellent feedback from team members throughout our locations. Anne was relaxed and came across very well to an audience with all levels of the organization. She kept the audience’s attention, linked everything to the key tenets of the presentation and kept making the links back, which was very meaningful. Her presentation definitely made an impact on our team, and our All Hands Meeting was a success.
