Creating Engaging Virtual Spaces

It’s going to be a while, a long while, before speakers get to be on stage at large in-person events. To keep your speaking business thriving you need to be a stellar virtual presenter. Join Amy Climer and learn best practices and interactive strategies for leading online webinars and trainings.

You'll learn how to

  • design virtual sessions that make an impact 
  • present so it feels like you are in-person 
  • use technology to your advantage 

This isn’t about how to use Zoom (you can watch their free instructional videos). This is about designing and delivering virtually.
