This week, we will be welcoming back our EVP, Emily Minor ACB ALS, as TME and our previous EVP, Daniel Smith DTM to deliver our Summitting Session on Speaking with Metaphor.
Throughout the world, metaphors are powerful tools for conveying meaning and moving audiences. How well are you using metaphors now? In this 20 minute session we will learn from NLP Trainer and experienced speaker Daniel Smith how we can make metaphors work for us in our speaking.
