SUMMARY:Stand Out Every Time You Talk
DESCRIPTION:\n\nThis is an in-person workshop at the Middletown Library 
 Service Center.\n\nWhat happens when you have to make a 
 presentation--whether to staff\, the board or a room full of strangers? You 
 get nervous and your message gets lost. In this two and a half hour\, 
 interactive workshop\, learn the fundamentals of effective presentation 
 skills. Find out how solid eye contact is an anchor\, learn about posture 
 and why gestures are essential and make your content come alive. We'll also 
 cover how to use your voice effectively\, tips on crowd control\, and how 
 to regain the attention of a distracted audience. We'll practice Q&A skills 
 and why this part of your presentation is a great opportunity for you to 
 shine. Interactive and fun\, join us live at the CT State Library for a 
 session that will help you channel your nervousness so that you stand out 
 every time you talk! \n\nP.S. Introverted or shy presenters are often the 
 most effective once they learn how to engage the audience. \n\nPresenter:
