Rerun of https://program.sha2017.org/events/91.html, which was well received and people asked for it to be done again. I may want to tweak the description a bit further.
As a technical person, you work with complicated and often important matters. To explain these, get your message across, raise your value and get a better job, it is essential that you can communicate your message to a wider audience. If you cannot effectively explain your solution or your issues to other people you will end up frustrated and unrecognized. Even for educating and training your peers, public speaking skills are very important.
In this workshop, you will improve your public speaking skills. We will practice and evaluate and practice some more.
Your workshop leader is a professional trainer and an advanced member of Toastmasters International. Toastmasters International is a nonprofit educational organization for the purpose of helping members improve their communication skills. More than 300.000 members are organized in around 15.000 member clubs globally.

The Internet has always been like this from its inception, the difference now is the scale and consequences are almost immeasurable - and it tests the limits of human imagination. When you look into the mirror of the Internet what you see reflected back depends on what you are looking for. It has become largely a reflection of ...
