Presenting at Blogworld Expo East: empower women to find their voices

How are you? Hope all is well.

Here’s an audio snapshot just below about presenting at Blogworld (or a written summary follows soon after on Blogworld reflections and questions about speaking in public):

‘A’ Game as public speakers (and you?)
There’s a big adrenaline rush on this end of the webz to head out to NYC for the Blogworld East New Media Expo. I’m thrilled to co-facilitate a workshop this year about empowering women to bring their ‘A’ game as public speakers with the motivating and motivated Aliza Sherman.

We’ll approach the session from a few angles:

• how to develop speaker proposals and submit on a regular basis to conference selection committees (plus some coping mechanisms for those icky rejection notices);
• how to enact a practice plan to strengthen as a speaker (and specifically practice your key message and assert public conversations long before it’s time to officially engage an audience from the stage).

At Blogworld Expo East this week? Here’s an invitation for you!

Have a super time at Blogworld and know you have a hearty invitation to join us Thur, May 26th at 9am for our session officially called: Speak Up – empowering women to find their voice. Our session’s specific hashtag is: #BWEvoice

Your favorite tips and strengths as a speaker: would you share?

What favorite tips do you practice in preparing for a speech — when organizing content or delivery or any aspect of stage preparation?

And what are your favorite attributes as a presenter? As in, do you love the sound of your voice or vocal range? Do you get an addictive kick out of storytelling and make an audience feel at ease? Are you a maestro at creating media decks or stimulating a sense of momentum in your narrative?
