Hybrid Event

Who Is This Workshop For?

  • Undergraduate & Graduate Structural Engineers or Architects who want to sound more confident and professional in interviews and meetings.

  • Migrant Structural Engineers & Architects facing the frustrating loop of “No local experience = No job”, who've ever thought:
    “I know my stuff… but I just don’t know how to say it in the right way. Or how to sound more confident”

“85% of your financial success is due to your personality and ability to communicate, negotiate, and lead. Shockingly, only 15% is due to technical knowledge.”

Why This Workshop Matters

You might be the most qualified candidate on paper.

But if you can’t speak with Clarity, Confidence, and Professionalism, you risk being misunderstood, overlooked, or underestimated.


This workshop is designed specifically for structural engineers and architects who want to gain the confidence to speak up, communicate technical ideas clearly, and leave the right impression in interviews, job follow-ups, and on-site with colleagues and clients.

What You'll Learn in this Workshop:

  • The Importance of HOW to Communicate, not just WHAT to say
    Understand why being technically correct isn't enough and how communication is a key skill in engineering

  • What to say (and NOT say) when calling or leaving voicemails following up after applying for a job to sound confident and professional

  • How to Sound MORE Professional, Confident and Persuasive

  • The 5 Foundations of Strong Speaking: speed, volume, pauses, melody & character

  • How to IMPROVE Articulation and Clarity

  • Real-Life Practice with LIVE Coaching and Feedback: This workshop won’t JUST be a lecture. You’ll practice your skills and receive real-time coaching from a professional speaking coach who’s worked with TEDx speakers and global leaders

Meet Your Presenter,
Trang Nova

  • Communication Specialist
  • Speaking Coach
  • TEDx Speaker
Trang Nova is a physiotherapist turned international speaker and one of today’s leading voices in communication and public speaking. She is widely known for helping professionals speak with clarity, authority, and impact, whether in high-stakes meetings, job interviews, or on stage.

Her mission is personal. Born in Australia and raised speaking Vietnamese, Trang knows what it feels like to stay quiet, to second-guess your words, and to feel invisible, even when you’re capable and qualified. That journey led her to transform not only her own speaking ability, but also the lives of thousands of professionals across industries.

Today, she draws on years of coaching experience, and her own journey from quiet and overlooked to TEDx speaker and speaking coach, to help others speak with authority in high-pressure situations.

Trang works closely with engineers, architects, and technical professionals to sharpen their delivery, speak clearly, and present their value with confidence. Her focus is practical:
What to say, How to say it, and How to make sure you leave the right impression.

In this workshop, Trang will guide you through exactly how to sound professional in interviews and follow ups, and answer confidently, and stand out for the right reasons; so you can get the opportunities you deserve.

If You Can’t Explain What You Know,
You’ll Miss the Opportunities You Deserve

You don’t need to sound PERFECT.

You just need to be CLEAR, CONFIDENT, and PROFESSIONAL enough to be heard and respected.

Whether you’re calling an employer, walking into an interview, or following up after a job application...


That’s exactly what this workshop is here to help you with.
