Citi : Speakers Trust - Financially Speaking

Module Description:

The Financially Speaking programme sponsored by Citi, combines financial literacy with the learning of public speaking skills. Throughout the day, participants learn top money tips and responsible ways to make and save money. Participants play an interactive ‘Marketplace’ game to help them better understand money management and decisions. At the end of the day they deliver a finance-themed speech, putting their new found skills into practice! Being able to communicate effectively and understand financial issues equips participants with crucial skills for all aspects of life and work.

Our workshops are fast, fun and interactive – helping participants to build confidence and self-esteem whilst learning practical public speaking techniques.
