Florida Realtors® Teaches You Public Speaking With Confidence
You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Let Florida Realtors®' Spokesperson Training help prepare you for speaking opportunities, whether that's with your customers, your colleagues, policymakers or the media.
This intensive full-day training session teaches effective communication with both the public and the news media – a huge benefit for any Realtor seeking to boost their public speaking skills. For Florida Realtors leaders at the local and state level who are ready to make their voices count – it's a game changer.
Taught at the Florida Realtors headquarters in Orlando by a panel of communications and media experts, the course features instant video replays of participants’ presentations to strengthen communications skills as industry leaders.
Many participants say it is the best learning session of any kind that they have experienced.
How it works
Participants will each give a short introductory presentation about themselves, which is then videoed and critiqued, as the instructors offer practical tips and personal strategies to improve participants' public speaking skillset. Later on, attendees also participate in a mock news conference. At the end of the session, you will gain confidence and knowledge about how to work effectively with the media.
While state and local leaders, such as local board officers, association executives, Florida Realtors district vice presidents, RPAC and Governmental Affairs chairpersons and directors, are great candidates for this course, the training is designed to help any and all Realtors strengthen their public speaking.
There are up to six participants in each session, with multiple sessions available each Winter/Spring and Fall. Each day-long course runs from 8:30 a.m. until approximately 4:15 p.m.
The cost is $100 for local board/association presidents, presidents-elect, association executives and RPAC and Legislative Chairs. It’s $225 for all others – a bargain price compared to most full-day, hands-on public speaking programs. Florida Realtors subsidizes the program to keep your costs at this level.
