Public Speaking – Don’t Let Fear Stop You

March 21, 2014 by Stacy

public-speaking

Is your fear of public speaking holding you back from career advancement, participating in meetings, or even speaking up at a large social gathering, retirement party, or community event? 

Public speaking is by far one of the greatest fears that people face.  The fear of public speaking can be crippling in a professional environment.  However, we can each face that fear and lessen the anxiety through practice and the help of Toastmasters International, a world leader in developing communication skills. Administrative assistants can be articulate speakers.  They can have strong communication skills and be thoughtful about what they say. Take the initiative today to gain the confidence to speak up in meetings, to give a presentation, or to have the courage to be able to step in and give a presentation on behalf of your boss when he/she cannot be in two places at once.

Don’t let fear stop you from reaching your potential!  Learn more about Toastmasters International at www.toastmasters.org.
