Public speaking:
does that term get the brain whirring with ideas or strike fear into the depths of the heart?
As building and business professionals, each of us is called upon to speak in public from time to time – project interviews, government meetings, and more. Whether you’re a confident speaker or not, everyone needs practice! Here’s your chance to exercise those presentation skills (or even test them out for the first time) in a fun, safe way!
Attendees are offered four minutes to speak, with or without props, on any topic desired, and receive feedback from two distinguished Toastmasters. (Questions may also be drawn randomly at the event, if preferred.) Experts Mary Jeanne Vincent, ATB, CL, and Kevin Donohoe, CC, CL, will review each individual and provide private feedback on strengths and opportunities for improvement.
Audience members, here’s a chance to “meet” your colleagues in a whole different light – not over work or projects, but as people with incredibly varied backgrounds, experiences, interests, and inspirations!
