Public Speaking Intensive Berlin

One intensive day. 12 participants. A lot of actual speaking.

Public Speaking Intensive Berlin is a hands-on workshop for professionals who want to communicate with more presence, clarity and authority when it matters.

This is not a day of sitting down and taking notes about how to become a better speaker.

You will speak. You will experiment. You will receive individual feedback. You will observe other speakers. And you will have the opportunity to apply what you discover and try again.

The group is deliberately limited to 12 participants to make that possible.

We will work on the elements that have the greatest impact on how you communicate when you are in front of other people:

• Presence and body: how you stand, move, use gestures and occupy the space
• Voice: projection, articulation and vocal variety
• Rhythm and pauses: how to stop rushing and give your words more weight
• Eye contact and audience connection: moving from “looking at people” to actually communicating with them
• Structure: creating a clear opening, central message and conclusion
• Storytelling and economy: deciding what deserves space and what can be removed
• Pressure and recovery: staying present when you lose your words, make a mistake or something unexpected happens

The emphasis throughout the day is on practice rather than theory.

This Intensive is designed for professionals who already need to speak as part of their work, or are becoming increasingly visible in their role.

You might be presenting projects or results, speaking to a team, communicating with senior management, leading meetings, pitching ideas, joining panels or speaking at conferences.

You don't need to be a manager.

You don't need previous public speaking training.

And you certainly don't need to be someone who naturally loves being on stage.

You do need to be willing to practise.

Throughout the workshop, we will alternate short inputs with exercises, speaking practice, observation and feedback.

A central part of the day is the opportunity to repeat.

Because understanding what you could change is useful. Experiencing what happens when you actually change it is much more useful.

You will therefore have opportunities to speak, receive specific feedback, make an adjustment and test it again.

You will also learn by observing the other participants and giving feedback yourself, developing your ability to recognise what makes communication clear, credible and engaging.

The workshop is based on Authentic Speaker Practice, my approach to public speaking developed from more than 30 years of professional acting, coaching and public speaking training.

We work across three interconnected areas:

Intention: knowing what you want your communication to produce.

Authority: using voice, body, rhythm, silence and space in a way that supports your role and your message.

Connection: maintaining a genuine relationship with the people in front of you instead of retreating into performance or self-monitoring.

The objective is not to teach you how to “act confident”.

It is to give you practical ways to communicate effectively while remaining recognisably yourself.

I'm Carlo Loiudice, a Public Speaking Coach, ICF-certified coach, TEDx coach and professional actor.

For more than 30 years, my work has involved voice, body, presence, storytelling, audience relationship, and performing under pressure.

Today I bring that experience together with coaching and public speaking training to work with professionals, teams and companies in Berlin and across Europe.

And no: this is not an acting class.

We use tools from professional actor training because actors have spent centuries working on voice, body, presence, attention, and audiences.

You won't be asked to become a character.

You'll practise becoming more effective as yourself.
