Now that the circumstances of coronavirus have put all your stakeholders on the other side of a camera at a moment that calls for great leadership communication, your principal has no choice but to use video—and to learn to use it well.

In this train-the-trainer session, legendary leadership communication coach Helio Fred Garcia is going to show you how to help.

You will learn:

• Camera distortion is real: How to use it to your executive’s advantage—and how to eliminate ways in which it works to your disadvantage.
• Script versus bullet points, paper versus teleprompter: How to control the content without stifling the style.
• The arms move and the communication follows biomechanical consequences of upper body-language.
• Physical fluidity: How to help your speaker seem neither rigid and stiff, nor frantic and frenzied.
• Voice control: Natural methods to connect the speaker emotionally with the words she or he is saying.
• How to accentuate your speaker’s strengths and minimize his or her weaknesses.

And then ask Fred anything—from tech questions to how to handle your speaker’s pecadillos so you can learn to build on strengths and work around weaknesses.

There’s nothing more important right now than helping your speaker get better at video—and no one better to teach you how.
