Is this the year you’ve promised yourself to engage more directly and effectively with your audience? The new Women’s Business Forum public speaking program, “Professionally Speaking,” will help you develop the skills that will build your confidence as a speaker, get more comfortable in front of a group and become a more polished presenter.

“Professionally Speaking” will be facilitated by Esther Hughes, accomplished motivational speaker and author who coaches individuals to enhance their communication skills. The program brings participants together on the third Wednesday of each month – starting January 16, 9-10:30am – for 90-minute meetings in the Doylestown area during which participants

• practice presentations
• try new approaches
• conquer fears and become more comfortable speaking to a group
• receive valuable feedback from coach and peers

“Strong public speaking skills can help you communicate your other talents to prospective clients, build confidence in the products or services you offer, and bring lots of positive attention to you and your brand,” says Hughes, who is well- known to the Women’s Business Forum community through her presentations at monthly meetings and area business expos.

Participant must be a Women’s Business Forum supporting member to take advantage of this business-building program. Fees, to be paid monthly, are $30/month for a six-month commitment, $35/month for a three-month commitment, or $50/month as a drop-in. More than half of the proceeds directly support the Women’s Business Forum mission to educate, mentor and inspire women to build and sustain viable businesses.
