Not everyone is a "natural" when it comes to public speaking. And library
work has expanded to include many types of information delivery - including
oral presentations to large and small groups.
Do you want to be an even more EFFECTIVE speaker?
Do you want to know how to communicate anything to any audience at any time?
Do you want your audience to be able to understand and duplicate your
message?
Do you want to know what your non-verbal communication is saying about you
and learn how to improve?
Would you like to learn the PROS' secrets to effective presentations?
If your work includes speeches, orientations, tours, staff meetings,
committee reports, outreach, advocacy, conference presentations, budget
presentations, training sessions or any other kind(s) of public speaking,
you can benefit from this course. If you have ever wondered why your
message was not heard or acted upon.....attend this workshop and you will
discover why and how to change your presentation style!

knowledge to present any information confidently to any audience at any
time, and to have the audience immediately understand and duplicate your

you will prepare and practice brief oral presentations, with opportunities
