A Real Treat on A Normal Working Day...

The Women's Staff Network within the university I work for hosted a lunch time seminar today with comedian Deborah Frances-White as part of the 2013 International Women's Day's.
Deborah is not only a comedian, but also an author, screen-writer, corporate speaker and executive coach.
It short - it was an excellent event.
Funny, insightful and thought provoking.
Her talk focused on what women need to do to become 21st century leaders
- without the power suits, Dynasty hair and shoulder pads!
Most people fear public speaking - almost more than death. It was very effective to see her simple demonstration of how most would behave and how to change it to so you can 'own' a room.
Above is a You Tube clip I found of her.
Food for thought on a Friday.
Have a great weekend!
