Why you should attend
The ability to speak clearly and confidently is important for all lawyers, whether speaking with partners, making a pitch to clients, or addressing a courtroom. At this two-hour program, taught by a former practicing lawyer, you will learn techniques that will immediately improve your presentation skills.
What you will learn
You will learn how to:
- Master effective physical delivery skills (eye contact, body language, voice, gesturing)
- Project confidence and control the anxiety associated with public speaking
- Effectively use notes to assist you in your presentation
- Organize your presentation to better communicate with your audience
- Handle difficult questions with confidence and ease
Attendees will have the opportunity to practice and reinforce their new presentation skills with their colleagues in the audience.
Who should attend
All attorneys interested in improving their presentation and communication skills.
