Inspire your audience

Are you going to give a speech or a presentation? This is often an important moment which can have a major impact on your career. How do you make sure you stand out from other speakers?

Speak to Inspire helps you to tell your story using your own strengths while connecting with the audience. The key is to grab the audience’s attention, induce an emotion, and to inspire them.

We believe there is only one way to learn how to speak: by doing it. Our trainers use a broad range of writing exercises, theatre and role playing exercises that will be recorded and reviewed. We use an objective method to make, present and evaluate the speeches.

Unique combination of speechwriting and theatre

Speak to Inspire combines expertise in speech writing with theatre and comedy. Huib Hudig wrote speeches for Dutch politicians like Mark Rutte and Piet Hein Donner. David was speech writer for former Mayor of Amsterdam Eberhard van der Laan.  Rutger Mollee, Simon Groen, Maurits Koster and Milou Dijkman are experienced presentation coaches and moderators that know exactly how to improve your public speaking skills.

Content and delivery

An inspiring presentation depends on both content and delivery. We help you to build your presentation as an exciting story. Speak to Inspire helps participants to improve the way they use their voice, their posture and in making contact with the audience. Equally important is knowing how to stand on stage with the attitude of giving your audience a present.
