Public Speaking for Chaplains & Spiritual Leaders
Where authentic and confident communication is an act of spiritual care.
From memorial services and blessings, to delivering workshops and institutional reports, chaplains and spiritual leaders across all settings often find themselves speaking in front of a room. It is one of the most impactful, visible, and meaningful parts of the role… and it also can be one of the most nerve wracking!
This is why 'Public Speaking for Chaplains' exists.
Julie Avis Rogers, an experienced chaplain, ordained minister, and public speaking strategist, offers the dedicated frameworks, education, and compassionate support so these public speaking invitations become a source of ease, authentic presence, and vocational significance.
The Four Stages of Public Speaking
Whether through 1-1 coaching, taking an intensive course or a workshop, our work together will address a holistic approach to public speaking for chaplains and spiritual leaders. We won’t just talk about delivery or crafting the “right” words, we’ll walk through all four stages that complete a public speaking journey.
-
What are the steps to fully preparing for a public speaking event? In this stage we:
Define the purpose
Craft our structure and words using effective frameworks
Gather the logistical and technical information we need to make the event a success.
-
The Threshold are the key moments leading up to the public speaking event. In this stage, we identify the spiritual practices and inner-resources needed to lead with groundedness, presence, and confidence.
-
Effective delivery requires a unique combination of public speaking skills that combine breath, voice, eye contract, and use of your physicality to deliver a message with impact, meaning, and clarity.
-
Instead of rumination or exhaustion, we use the post-delivery stage as an opportunity to use reflective grounding practices to integrate, celebrate, and holistically evaluate how the public speaking event went and build increased wisdom and insight for next time.
