Joint ARLIS/NA 30th-VRA 20th Annual Conference
PUBLIC SPEAKING WITHOUT FEAR & TREMBLING
Friday, March 22, 2002
1:00-5:00 p.m.
Do you get that queasy feeling at the prospect of having to address a
group? Does your heart race before meetings? Does a free-floating
paralysis set in when you face a roomful of peers? Do you avoid
bibliographic instruction because it requires speaking in public? Do you
find that although you know the material, self-consciousness keeps you
from speaking as effectively as you would like when you stand in front of
a group?
The answer to your problems lies in this workshop. Here we will show you
how to employ your voice properly, connect more immediately with your
audience, and speak more confidently in public. You will assess your
speaking style and body language and develop the ability to communicate
effectively with your listeners.
No previous public speaking experience is necessary. Bring your
anxieties and a desire to allay them.
