School Counselors and Public Speaking
A winning combination when done right.
On Wednesday July 1st – Stephanie Smith, Paul Smith, and I will present a morning workshop on the importance of high quality presentations – from both a preparation and design aspect, as well as delivery components. We hope you join us for an invigorating, high energy, and fun way to wrap up your ASCA 2015 experience! You will leave with ideas of how to tackle parent nights, board reports, and even classroom guidance. We do more public speaking than you may think as school counselors. No matter your comfort level with public speaking – we hope you join us Wed. July 1 for the final morning session. All comfort levels welcome!

Below I have embedded the slides for the presentation for your perusal and convenience. Stephanie, Paul and I will love to hear your feedback, ideas, and ways you may have implemented ideas from our presentation in the future. Good luck and have fun!
I wish: a) I had been able to go to Phoenix for the conference, and b) I could have heard this presentation. I’m good with content and preparation for presentations, but the public speaking aspect is a huge weakness for me. Will you be doing a post on the topic?
I wish you had been able to go too! Check out the SC|CS 2016 scholarship and donation drive! Share it with your friends and colleagues. We fund registration costs for ASCA each year, but the number depends on amount donated. If you know businesses – see if they can chip in or even sponsor a counselor or two ($350 per registration).

I hadn’t thought about doing a follow up post – but I have a few weeks and will do my best! If you are on the email list (hit the box in the sidebar to sign up) – it will send you a weekly email with any new posts. If not – check back in the next few weeks and I will see what I can do! Cheers ~ Jeff
