Speak up for Social Action

Calling all Changemakers…

Let us help you be heard

At Inspiring Women Changemakers, we are passionate about boosting people’s confidence and profile by helping them discover the power of their voice. So we created Speak Up for Social Action, to help changemakers communicate their social mission in a way that inspires, engages and encourages action!

Boost your confidence and learn how to speak with impact through our 121 coaching in public speaking and media handling. We work with you on content, delivery and structure, creating an open and supportive relationship within which changemakers can develop their critical thinking and researching expertise, as well as their presenting skills. We’ll also help you with specific issues such as confidence, larger or high-profile audiences, speaking up in meetings, or preparing for an important presentation.

We’ve prepared changemakers for events ranging from presentations, to book launches, to TEDx Talks. Our clients have included a US-based human rights expert, a healthcare leader, and a 3x Paralympic medal winner. If you’re ready to speak up on bigger platforms and would like our support with refining your message, email anj@inspiringwomenchangemakers.co.uk to enquire about our packages.

Get your message on point

Getting your messaging right is crucial when raising awareness of social issues to engage supporters. Over-sensationalising the story or believing that expecting everyone to agree often has the reverse effect.

We teach the art of blending facts with a powerful story and providing an easy-to-implement call to action. You will learn how to structure their talk so that they can slot in relevant information, sandwiched between a strong start and finish. Too many people miss these simple steps.

But structure is only one element of a successful talk. We also help changemakers improve their delivery. We do this by eliminating certain words, working on your body language and posture and giving you the tools and techniques to boost their confidence and steady their voice.

“Anj was an absolute delight to work with when I asked for her help in tackling three specific public communications challenges. Although we worked remotely (I’m based in the USA), the ease of conversation, the coaching and mentorship, and the professionalism and skill-building were as if I were directly in front of her. She gave me confidence, told me to trust my own “voice,” and gave me practical recommendations for how to organise my speeches so that I communicate clearly and effectively. I’m excited to apply what I have learned from Anj in the coming months.” Deanna S.
