Attorneys are often asked to speak at conferences, moderate panel discussions, be interviewed for podcasts, and speak on TV or video. Public speaking is an opportunity to enhance the profession and share your expertise with others. In today’s professional environment, public speaking requires that attorneys to be comfortable with video, in-person and virtual.

  • Communicate effectively in virtual programs and on-video
  • Personalize your message for podcast interviews
  • Create sound bites for media interviews

  • Speak on TV

In this workshop, Mimi builds on the techniques shared in her popular Essential Presentation Skills for Attorneys CLE to provide in-depth techniques for public speaking at conferences, virtual programs, video, podcasts and media interviews.
