From the course: How to Own a Room
The secrets to owning a room
- Not everyone is born with Beyonce level stage presence. In fact, I doubt Beyonce was even born with it. Being able to own a room is a skill, just like coding or making PowerPoints, and skills can be learned. It's time to get over the idea that some people have it and some people don't. You can walk into any room and knock an audience's socks off. It just takes strategy, practice, and confidence. I'm Bianca Lager, and I'm a keynote speaker, a communications expert, and the President of Social Intelligence. Throughout my career, I've been in many intimidating rooms, from Fortune 500 boardrooms to large conference stages, to a room full of judgy, middle schoolers, and I've learned what it takes to captivate an audience and make that room mine. In this course, I'll teach you how to make lasting impressions and own any room you walk into, even if you're feeling timid. I'll show you how to tap into your self-confidence, offer tips to master the art of storytelling, identify the keys to executive presence, and suggest practical strategies for addressing stage fright and fear. Whether it's a job interview, a first date, or a 5,000 person conference, I'll teach you how to exude confidence and own that room. So let's get started.
