SUMMARY:Women in Business | Public Speaking
LOCATION:Sunrise of River Forest 800 N. Harlem\, River Forest Parking is av
 ailable in the rear.
DESCRIPTION:Public Speaking Public Speaking begins with mindset and self-ta
 lk. It includes appropriate pride and appropriate humility\, audience atti
 tudes\, and how to stop assuming we know what others are thinking of us. N
 o one is as hard on us as we are on ourselves. In this session\, participa
 nts will listen to their self-talk and learn to let go of past assumptions
 \, definitions\, and vocabulary. We will develop plans for balancing accep
 tance and improvement\, leading to more confidence\, as well as peace. Mee
 t our Presenter: Leora Dowling "When I walked into that classroom I was so
  excited and confident. When I walked out I was humiliated and defeated. T
 he memory hasn’t completely faded\, but the sting has. In fact\, I owe m
 y career to that guy because that's when I vowed I would never feel that w
 ay again. "I dropped the class (cowardly\, I know)\, and joined the colleg
 e radio station (rather brave\, considering). And I started to really pay 
 attention. I discovered that effective speakers and communicators have thr
 ee things in common: they’re confident\, they connect\, and they use the
 ir words\, voices\, and bodies comfortably. With persistence\, practice\, 
 and generous teachers\, I mastered the fine art of public speaking. I’d 
 be honored to share what I’ve learned with you." Speakers are engaged fr
 om within the diverse expertise of the OPRF Chamber membership. Interested
