Voice in Business
Voice & the Workplace
Many workers are heavily reliant on their voices to be effective in their roles. When vocal overuse or misuse leads to a strained, hoarse, tired voice, there can be serious financial implications for employers and employees alike.
Listeners, including your customers and clients, make swift judgements upon voice quality; the tone, speed and pitch of your voice, the sounds and words you use and the way you use them.
Even though voice and speech skills are essential tools of the trade for anyone dealing with people in business, most have little or no training and are among the most at risk of encountering voice problems, leading to potentially high sickness rates, a high turnover of staff and problems with health, wellbeing and finance for the employees.
My vocal workshops are customised according to the demands of your business upon staff, your working environment and the level of knowledge required. Contact me if you would like to discuss how I can help you address the potential effects of voice problems in your workplace.
