Our Vision & Mission
Vision: To empower every individual to express themselves confidently and achieve personal and professional success through the art of public speaking.
Why did we start SpeakSpark Academy? Our founder, Anna Briggs, saw time and again how fear of public speaking held people back. That’s why we built a nurturing, supportive community where beginners feel safe taking the first step. Our mission is to make confidence and communication skills accessible to all, regardless of background or experience.
