Soft Skills Academy

Do you know that as many as 75% of people fear public speaking more than death?* And sooner or later each of us will have to speak - whether at university, at work or even when making Christmas wishes … It’s time to put aside fear and think what can be done so that our presentations not only do not scare us, but also were interesting and valuable for recipients.

Yesterday I had the great pleasure to represent Toastmasters Kraków and lead, together with Artur Grabowski, workshops on public speaking for AGH students as part of the Soft Skills Academy. There were both theoretical tips and a large dose of exercises. Have we managed to prove that the speeches are not so scary? I hope so! And we would like to thank the organizers for the invitation - good luck with your further activities.
