Professional Speaking and Communication

https://www.johncmaxwellgroup....

One of the most nerve-racking and yet necessary skills in advancing or maintaining our careers is public speaking.  There are many speaking events from the job interview, to a project presentation, to an event toast for a beloved colleague. We may speak in front of a familiar small crowd or a new large audience. The key points of connecting with your audience and getting your message across clearly are what you all want to do well.

(Former) Assistant US Attorney for Brooklyn NY, Alphonzo Grant, Jr. Esq. – (excerpt)
“As an Assistant United States Attorney, oral argument and public speaking are critical aspects of my life. When I detected small idiosyncrasies in my speech pattern, I contacted World Class to assist me in improving my speaking skills.

After taking the program, I can honestly say that my speech pattern and speaking ability have improved immensely. I would recommend World Class Speech Services to anyone who has significant speech impediment or is simply looking to enhance their public speaking skills. The program is administered in a professional, personal manner, and the techniques definitely work!”

Stony Brook University Career Center, Kimberly Joy Dixon – (excerpt)

“Ms. Cotter-Jenkins did a wonderful job explaining cultural differences and how that impacts speech patterns, accents and body language. In addition, she was able to express to students how they may be able to increase their verbal skills while using the telephone and answering questions in an interview.

The seminar was conducted in a professional manner and Ms. Cotter-Jenkins was very interactive with the audience. The handouts provided were informative and the recommendations of various resources were useful. The Career Center received positive, oral and written feedback from participants.”
