Corporate Drama : Adding a Magic Ingredient To how You Present!

The strategic director of SMV South Africa, a global media company approached the Academy to present a workshop which could help bridge the gap between business and drama.The company have many fantastic presenters but the idea was to push the boundaries and make them " sparkle". A two hour workshop involved group bonding exercises, relaxation and vocal training, lateral thinking, bringing to life a power point presentation and dealing with the unexpected ! Besides teaching them new skills , great fun was had by all!
