TEDxPraça Gil Eanes Salon: Public Speaking

Every talk on the TEDx stage started as a nervous first draft, said out loud to a room.

At this Salon, past TEDxPraça Gil Eanes speakers share what preparing for that stage taught them, the parts that worked and the parts they'd change. A few surprise facilitators then guide us through some playful, interactive exercises on finding your voice and using it.

This Salon is organised in collaboration with Fábrica do Empreendedor Lagos and CEIBA, Centro de Empreendedorismo de Impacto do Barlavento Algarvio.

You don't need any speaking experience, and nobody will be put on the spot. Come to listen, try something new, or both.

What to expect

Stories and advice from past TEDxPraça Gil Eanes speakers, interactive public speaking exercises in small groups, and time to meet others from the community.
