The IMPA GCC Chapter hosted an insightful learning session on Voice Techniques to Boost Your Presence as a Trainer. The event, led by the experienced radio broadcaster Charu Shonek, equipped attendees with practical methods to enhance their vocal presence, command attention, and improve clarity and confidence during presentations.

The key topics covered included:

• Participants practiced foundational exercises like deep breathing, humming, and the ‘pen-between-the-teeth’ technique to improve tone, projection, and speaking effectiveness.
• Engaging in role-playing activities, attendees explored how tone and delivery influence audience engagement, adapting their vocal style to suit various scenarios.
• For virtual training sessions, practical advice on using tools like Audio Array clip-on microphones and sound-absorbing environments was shared to improve audio quality.
• Participants were taught techniques to maintain vocal clarity and resonance through effective breath control and vocal projection to ensure a resonant and impactful delivery.
• Tips on adjusting volume and tone to maintain audience engagement were also explored, encouraging trainers to bring vibrancy to their presentations.

The session gave the attendees a deeper understanding of the critical role of voice in communication with actionable strategies to enhance their professional presence.

Kudos to the IMPA GCC Chapter and Charu for curating such an enriching learning experience, empowering members to grow as confident and effective communicators.
