*PLEASE NOTE: The timezone for this event is United Kingdom*

As professionals or freelancers - our roles, projects and portfolio of work can be so varied and so diverse; like a beautiful pick and mix - but it can be difficult to know where to start when youre in a situation and have to tell someone else what you do and coherently explain the breadth.  And yet, it's an important part of your personal brand, funding applications, job applications, marketing yourself, your social media, networking, project pitching etc.

This 2-hour participatory Zoom session led by Mortal Fools will focus on developing your elevator pitch - it will get you thinking about who you are, what you do, your personal values, what you love about what you do and how to effectively communicate that in a few lines.

In this session you will:
- Start to formulate a clearer articulation of your purpose within your work  the WHY you do what you do and passion for your work.  
- Consider WHY, HOW and WHAT your professional work is and how to use this structure to inform your personal communication strategy as a freelancer/professional.

The session will include:
- Practical tools to develop your confidence in self-promotion - including delivering your elevator pitch in a safe space with others.
- Collective discussion about why it's sometimes hard to effectively communicate what we do and the impact of the use of language.

£25 per participant - includes access to FB group post session and post session notes for further reflection.
