Breaking Through Public Speaking Fears (Even After Failure!)
Abstract
How do training to hang from a trapeze or belt out an aria prepare you for the challenges of librarianship? Through stories about their backgrounds in public speaking and performance, our panelists will reveal how their training has helped them confidently speak up at faculty meetings, emcee large staff events, and casually pitch ideas to law school deans. We know you prepare and work hard—now let’s build your public speaking confidence, learn from critique without internalizing it, and speak up without fear of failure. We’ll even practice together in a safe and low-stakes environment, to help you get your feet wet.
