Find your voice under pressure presented by Lucy Cornell

Back by popular demand and building on last year’s session, Lucy Cornell, CEO of Cornell Voice will share tips and techniques to find your voice under pressure, whether that is dealing with difficult stakeholders, managing emotional conversations, keeping your voice at the table among positional dynamics, pushing back or just simply being heard.

Business conversations are complex and full of challenging terrain, which usually test the capacity of the voice - both positionally and literally. Under pressure, the voice does uncontrolled, unpredictable things; changes pitch, loses flow, retracts, overshares, minimises, gets stern… the list is a litany of individual habits that invariably interfere with our intention to speak confidently and with influence.

There is deliberate method behind finding your voice under pressure. It is not just something people are born with. Everyone can do it. Take part in this lunch time session to learn how to hold court more confidently and assert your voice under pressure.

You don’t need to have attended Lucy’s last session to join, though if you are interested in checking it, you can access the recording by logging into the members portal on the HRMinds website.
