Business Skills Workshops for Performers and Artists
Nordic Nomad runs workshops that focus on business skills such as sales, marketing, and presentation. They are open to artists of all disciplines (theatre, fine art, music, dance, photography, design etc.) wishing to update their skills in a supportive small-group environment.


Friday 20 October
Selling Yourself without Selling your Soul

We will focus on current projects and learn practical and easy methods of promoting our work and becoming our own ambassadors.


Friday 27 October
Confidence in Presentation

This workshop is specifically about building confidence.   It is an active and participatory workshop, focusing on current projects: preparing for a presentation, a meeting, a pitch or an interview. Often, we are only presenting to one other person, but it is still very important to get it right! We will practice:

• Getting to know your audience •
• How to present yourself and your projects/ideas in the best light •
• How to reduce nerves and enjoy the experience •
• Engaging the audience •


Friday 3 November
