Techniques from the rehearsal room
People learn leadership the way actors learn a part: by doing it, seeing it from the other side, and doing it again.
Status play
Actors’ exercises on high and low status show how posture, pace and eye contact change how people respond to you.
Voice and breath work
Theatre warm-ups for projection, pace and pausing, so your voice carries authority without strain.
Hot-seating
You take questions in character from a challenging audience, and practise staying grounded.
