Public speaking: for some, it comes naturally; for others, it’s a shiver-inducing ordeal. But whether or not you’re a born orator, chances are you’d like at least a few pointers, and who better to enlist as your guide than Chris Anderson?
If the name doesn’t ring a bell, then his conferences are sure to; Anderson is the president and head curator of TED Talks. With everyone from Jamie Oliver to Bill Clinton gracing his stage, Anderson is at the very heart of the talks world. If anyone knows how to hold an audience’s attention, it’s him.
Not only has he spent over a decade organising these conferences, he’s also an accomplished speaker himself (although even he admits to pre-show nerves.) So whether you’re looking to perfect a wedding speech or fine tune a business pitch, this is the event for you.
Head to Curzon Soho on May 16 for Anderson’s lunchtime talk, as part of the how to: Academy’s 2016 programme.
