PWI Mentoring Program: Empowering Women to Speak with Confidence, Presence and Impact
This practical and inspiring workshop helps professionals build greater confidence, visibility and authority when speaking in meetings and presentations
Opening with insights from Mary Ann Sieghart’s The Authority Gap, it sheds light on the challenges many women still face when striving to be heard and respected. Participants will discover the power of effective presentation skills and learn three essential vocal techniques — Pause, Rate of Speech and Volume — to command attention and deliver messages with clarity and impact.
With the support of an AI speech coaching app, participants can continue to refine their delivery beyond the session. Through peer collaboration and shared learning, the workshop creates a supportive environment that inspires ongoing growth and confidence in every speaking situation.
