Women Out Front: The Power of Persuasion
It’s time for women to create our own destinies. Better communication and storytelling gives us the ability to seize every opportunity and aspire to new heights. So, whether interviewing for a job, delivering a talk at a conference, raising money for a favorite non-profit, running for public office, or communicating one-on-one, women can become a powerful force when we learn to speak with authenticity and confidence.
As co-founder of Eloqui, Deborah Shames has coached thousands of executives, celebrities and professionals at all levels in their career, from just starting out to running their own companies. Whether training teams of professionals, or speaking to women executives, Deborah delivers practical techniques for how to elevate speaking from mediocre to mastery. Her book Out Front: How Women can Become Engaging, Memorable and Fearless Speakers was published by BenBella Books.
Deborah will provide the following learning objectives:
- Debunking the myth that if you’re not an expert, you don’t deserve to speak on a topic
- The differences between virtual and in-person presentations
- How to turn off the critical voices in our heads that say we’re not good enough
- Why being polished and perfect can hurt us
- The damaging effects of self-critical judgment
- Practical tools to shorten your prep time and become a person of influence.
Registrants will receive meeting link information a few days prior to meeting date.
