How to Find Your Own Authenticity from the Stage

Monica Wofford, CSP
Contagious Confidence
TM

Clients can tell if you are not being authentic. They can feel it and so can you...in your wallet. Learn to boost your own confidence and authenticity in a business where you only get hired (paid) if you believe you are worth it.

Speakers often fake confidence rather than feel it. They judge themselves against the quality, style, fee, and "busi-ness" of other speakers. They talk themselves out of a higher fee because they don't believe they are worth it. Contagious Confidence
TM isn't about being fluffy; its about being real about your belief in what you are, what you do, how good it can be. This presentation will increase the number of clients that invite you back!

A Message from NSA N. FL Chapter President Mary McCormack


How are your New Year's resolutions going? One of mine was to continually learn new and interesting things both personally and professionally. As a member of the Gem and Mineral Society, I signed up to take classes to learn silversmithing and advanced gem inlay processes. We all need to have a good balance between work and play. When I finished making amethyst rings for both my husband and me, I felt a strong sense of accomplishment and delight!

After each NSA-NF meeting I feel a similar feeling of accomplishment and delight. Having been a trainer and speaker for over thirty years, I truly value lifelong learning. Each time I attend one of our meetings, I experience "take home value" that I can apply to my business. The quality of our speakers is second to none. The networking between members is energizing and stimulating. The relationships that we aredeveloping in our chapter grow stronger with each event. How can we not be delighted? It simply does not get better than this!

Last meeting, Jim Ziegler taught us the strategies that he has used throughout his amazing career to be exceptional at work and with his marriage. What a great team he and his wife make. For our next meeting on April 9th at The University Club we will build on what we learned and move our businesses forward to our next level of success.

There are many facets to a successful speaking business. From social networking to productive marketing layered upon a foundation of strong platform skills, it is all important. You just have to decide where your business needs the most attention right now. Our chapter programming will offer insight into all aspects of managing your speaking business. If you want to experience lifelong learning and be very successful at your chosen field of professional speaking, NSA-North Florida is the chapter for you! VP for Education Linda Harvey is doing a fantastic job of lining up the best of the best for YOU! I can't wait to learn from Monica Wofford, CSP about her ideas for achieving "Authenticity from the Stage". Monica is well respected both as a member of NSA and the Central Florida chapter. Welcome Monica!

Just to keep you informed about what your wonderful executive board is doing to help our chapter grow, we will be meeting on March 27th for a half day strategic planning meeting. We will have great news to share with you on April 9th! We are developing committees that our members can participate in very soon. If you want to get more involved, think about joining our Hospitality Committee to help great guests, our speakers, and members. Volunteering helps you to develop relationships and friendships. This is your chapter. Our continued success depends on everyone helping a little bit. So think about your area of expertise and what you also enjoy. let me or any of your board members know of your interst to help. We welcome your ideas and your involvement!

LOU HECKLER The Prince of The Pause!

You do not want to miss this meeting!

What can you learn form attending December 11th meeting?  You will learn the importance of word-smithing your speeches...how even a single word has the power to influence and teach. You will learn the power of pauses...how to give your audience time to absorb the thought, feeling, or concept you are conveying. You will learn what Lou Heckler has learned over a lifetime of presentations that earned him the respect of his clients, audiences, and his peers in the speaking industry.


"At a past National Speakers Association conference, I attended a three hour, intensive workshop with Lou that influenced my speaking style forever! It was so outstanding that after learning hundreds of ideas in the session, I bought the CD audio-taped recording so I could listen to him again and again when I returned home.  I can't wait to hear Lou again!" 
Mary McCormack

Attendance is limited to the first twenty-five individuals who RSVP to Zelda Greenberg.  Because we know that the room will be full, I encourage you to  contact Zelda today to reserve your place.  We don't want you to miss this opportunity to learn from a true master of the platform!
