Strategic Speaking is
Not another Public Speaking Workshop
It is the missing layer before speaker coaching, storytelling, performance, or delivery can actually work.
Thursday & Friday, May 28-29, 2026
Led by Shivangi Walke & Tanya MFK
The Industry Has Given You Real Tools
All of it is real. None of it is enough on its own.
Public speaking
Helps you deliver
Pitch coaching
Sharpens a specific ask
Storytelling
Helps you connect
Confidence coaching
Helps you show up
Voice & body
Helps you embody the message
None of it is wrong
All of it is incomplete
Because none of it answers the question that determines whether any of it works:
What is this moment actually supposed to produce?
Because the talk was never the problem. The strategy around it was missing.
What Strategic Speaking does
It puts everything you already know inside a real outcome-driven speaking moment.
It starts before the message. Before the story. Before the slides. Before the rehearsal. It starts with the moment itself.
What is it supposed to produce? Who needs to move? What do they need to believe before you say a word? What needs to happen after you stop talking? What is the actual ask? What conditions need to exist for any of this to work?
That is the strategy layer.
Most speakers never build it.
1. Strategy
What the moment is supposed to do and how to design around that.
2. Craft
How to shape the message so it can actually do that job.
3. Performance
How to deliver it with presence, authority, and intention.
What You’ll Learn
Day One · Thursday, May 28
Strategy and Craft
A complete strategy. A built message.
You arrive with a real situation. You leave with a complete strategy and a built message ready for Day Two.
-
Diagnose your speaking moment — what it is, what it costs, what it's actually worth
Identify the real currency of your opportunity — money, audience, influence, authority, relationship
Define the outcome with precision — not what you want to say, what needs to exist after
Map the fit — is this opportunity actually built to produce what you need
Build your audience and stakeholder map — who needs to move, what they believe, where the resistance lives
Identify the conditions — what needs to be true before you walk in
Design the follow-through — the ask, the capture, the 48-hour plan, the longer arc
Build your message spine — structured around the outcome, not the content
Choose your frame — the angle that makes this message land for this specific room
Find the story that does real work — trust, belief shift, urgency, recognition
Design your opening — relevance before attention
Design your close — the moment that lands, not trails off
Build your rough talk — assembled, structured, ready for Day Two
Day Two · Friday, May 29
Craft into Performance
You come back built. You leave filmed.
A full day of embodiment, live delivery, real-time coaching and a professionally filmed talk to keep.
-
Morning share and live coaching — refine what you built overnight
Grounding and nervous system work — how to enter a room already anchored
Body and posture — how presence reads before you say a word
Voice work — resonance, authority, the pause that lands harder than the sentence
Storytelling as embodiment — making a room feel the point, not just understand it
Acting-based exercises — status, impulse, alive delivery vs scripted delivery
Stage and space work — own the room whether it's a boardroom, stage, or Zoom
Eye contact and audience connection — holding attention without chasing it
Full live delivery in front of the cohort — your real situation, on your feet
Real-time coaching from both facilitators — in the moment, on your actual work
Second delivery — integrating the feedback, feeling the difference
Professional filmed delivery — video and photos you can actually use
The Day Two deliverable
You leave with a filmed delivery you can actually use.
Professional video and photos of your real talk, captured on Day Two, after a full day of strategy, craft, and live coaching.
For founders and experts — a credible artifact of how you actually communicate at your best
For coaches and consultants — a client-facing introduction or speaking reel that opens conversations.
For executives — a leadership-profile asset for internal town halls, board materials, or LinkedIn.
"This has been really enlightening. I am really rethinking how to go after what the goal really is. This is a very different approach than me just making sure I have all my content together."
