POLITICAL LANGUAGE, PERSUASION AND PRESENTATION SKILLS COURSE (PRIVATE)
THEME: “BECOMING AN ARTICULATE POLITICIAN”
WHY YOU MUST ATTEND
As a politician, there is need for consistent enhancement of your public speaking, persuasive communication and leadership skills.
Lack of Political Public Speaking and Persuasive Communication Skills accounts for why most of our politicians do not concentrate on articulation of their manifestoes to persuade the electorate during political campaigns but rather focus on attacking other contestants.
As a politician, you can outshine more brilliant but less articulate co-contestants if you are trained in the art of effective political public speaking and persuasive communication. You need the skills of effective public speaking and persuasive communication to succeed because you must be able to convince the electorate and even win opposition over during electoral campaigns so that people can vote for you.
