Journey Further invites you to their event

How to Own the Room with Viv Groskop — Journey Further Book Club [live]

About this event

Most talks about public speaking don't tell you what to do when you open your mouth and nothing comes out.

They don't tell you how to get over the anxiety about performance that most people naturally have.

They don't tell you what to do in the moments when you are made to feel small.

They don't tell you how to own the room...

Join us for Journey Further Book Club [live] with writer, comedian, TV and radio presenter, and the host of chart-topping podcasts, Viv Groskop.

Author of five books, including the best-selling How to Own the Room: Women and the Art of Brilliant Speaking, Viv writes about power, performance and public speaking.

As part of our current theme of communications, host Isabelle Wilkinson will be asking Viv:

  • What it means to own the room (or Zoom)
  • How to project presence
  • How to speak with conviction
  • How to bring a written speech to life
  • How to overcome your nerves

How to join the conversation:

We will be using polls, live chat and Q&A throughout to ask Viv your questions, and bring you into the discussion.
