Develop Your Presentation Skills

0.5 credits · Law School

Lawyers are often called upon to speak—in meetings, in court, in negotiations, in administrative hearings, and in many other settings—but don't always study or practice public speaking for its own sake. The further a lawyer advances in her career, the more she'll be called upon to exercise this critical skill, and to present information in a visually compelling way when needed. Students in this course will examine what makes the difference in public speaking, from preparation to presentation to presence.
