Workshop: Improve your Speaking Skills

As project managers we are often called upon to present in meetings, provide impromptu management updates, and deliver convincing explanations as to why it is still possible to finish the project on time. Kristy will provide some pointers for how to respond when you are put on the spot to contribute in a group setting, and we will practice in small groups of 5 to 6 people. Join us for an educational and fun workshop.
