About this event

Read on to find out about the huge value that you will be given at our next Fellows event before The Speaking Business Summit Conference 2026.

Please diary, and book on now for Thursday 15th October.

We have invited some industry experts to help us from within and from outside our PSA ranks on subjects that “you” asked us to deliver for you.

Please note:

  • Lunch is NOT provided so please eat prior to arrival.
  • Dinner IS provided after our session in a private dining area with a very special guest!

Session One – Adrianne Carter – The Unspoken Keynote: What Your Body Delivers…
Why nonverbal signals from the stage carry more persuasive weight than the words you’ve spent weeks crafting and how to use that asymmetry deliberately.

  • The facial expressions that build instant credibility and trust with an audience, and the ones that quietly undermine it without you ever knowing
  • How to use gesture strategically to anchor key ideas in your audience’s memory, not just fill the space between sentences
  • The body language patterns that signal authority, warmth, and conviction, and how to layer all three rather than choose between them
  • A practical framework for reading your audience’s nonverbal feedback in real time and adjusting your delivery accordingly
  • How to walk away with a personal signal audit: knowing exactly what you’re broadcasting from the stage and what to do with it (free Revealed™ Executive Profile report from me if they want one)

Session Two – Julie Holmes PSAE FPSA – Julie Has a Lot of Baggage: Unpacking Her Business model for the Fellows
