Communication skills training for lawyers.
The Hudson Voice Technique™ has been accredited by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.
It offers 16 hours CPD training.
Lawyers of all people have to be able to get their message across as clearly and effectively as possible. Whether it’s persuading judge and jury or making sure clients or the press get your message. The way you come across is critical in your job. There is usually a lot at stake.
When it comes to CPD training, there is an enormous choice and much of it is necessary. Regardless of your speciality, one thing stands out – you studied for years for your qualifications, but none of us were taught a communication technique at school (even stage school), we were simply taught to string words together.
The Hudson Voice Technique™ changes your speech pattern from instinct to technique. You become aware of the way you speak and learn how to control your voice and the way you deliver words.
Without the proper technique, you are reading and speaking by instinct.
Dictionary definition:
instinct /in’stingkt’/ n. The innate aspect of behaviour that is unlearned.
In other words you are all forced to make up you own rules; you’re ‘guessing’.
The Hudson Voice Technique™ is the only technique in the world for verbal communication and consists of seven elements which guarantee to make you a more effective speaker and enable you to win more legal arguments or votes.
‘I thoroughly enjoyed the course and have come away convinced the Hudson Voice Technique is an excellent way to learn how to use and control the voice more effectively, and that the skills acquired can be adapted for various purposes useful for solicitors; advocacy, presentations, public speaking generally. Also for more effectively presenting an argument in a meeting or a negotiation.’
- Susan Brown, Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) Assessor CPD
‘I would just like to let you know how the techniques I learnt on the course have helped me study for my Masters degree.
Through my own experience, it is assumed that reading is a given for the academic student. However, the Hudson Voice Technique can improve the efficiency with which you read and can help to absorb and assimilate information more effectively in any area.’
- Dr. Sarah Davies MBChB
‘Having completed the course and by using the technique you teach, I am finding that I am far more effective in the advocacy I undertake. I think the simple reason for this is because far more of what I have to say is retained, and your method has instilled in me so much more confidence.Thank you for perhaps the most enjoyable CPD seminar I have attended.’
- S.H. Robinson, Solicitor, Patrick Smith & Co.
“Verbal communication skills are a necessity for many, if not most lawyers; yet it is all too easy to reach a plateau of competence and forget about the further development of our strongest communication assett – our voice.”
- Ryan Ottman, CPD for Lawyers magazine
