Hello World! What is Ongoing Mastery?

In this debut episode of Ongoing Mastery: Presenting & Speaking, Kirsten Rourke explains why ongoing mastery is crucial for presenters’ and speakers’ development of their craft. Kirsten shares two stories that are the foundation of her work today and gives an overview of the kinds of topics she’ll be talking about with Kellie Donovan-Condron each week.

Key take-aways:

• All presenters and speakers need to continually work on their craft
• Kirsten is building a community of presenters and speakers to support each other's growth
• Ongoing Mastery: Presenting & Speaking will cover a wide range of topics – building engagement, connecting with your audience, voice control, body work, design, stagecraft, storytelling – and more
