Presenter's
Approach:
With humor, wit and charm, Diane uses demonstration and audience
participation to highlight common problems and offer simple,
practical solutions to these public speaking situations. The
overview program itself is fast-paced, fun and provides the audience
with numerous ideas for practical application of the important material covered.
Workshops, which can be scheduled alone or in conjunction with the
introductory Overview program, are in-depth work sessions which address
specific settings, patterns or problems. Workshops may be tailored
to cover specific issues facing the group. Plenty of audience
participation and ample practice time are provided.
An Overview program may be used as a precursor, given
to an audience who will subsequently divide into breakout
sessions. Up to 4 workshops may be scheduled following an Overview
program. For quick assistance in designing or requesting

About
the Presenter:
Twenty five years ago, Diane Smith became certified as a teacher of
English, Speech and Drama. She has directed, taught and coached at
the high school, college and adult levels in hundreds of situations in
several states.
Sometime later, she also became credentialed as an attorney and was
heard presenting powerful arguments in the highest levels of courts in
three states. She has attended graduate classes, seminars and
workshops in psychology, linguistics and business
management. Throughout
her varied careers, whether it was to an audience of Girl Scouts or to a
young attorney who wanted a mentor, Diane, a passionate public speaker,
has shared the lessons she learned. Colleagues began to urge that
she share with a broader audience and "take her act on the
road." She sometimes wonders if they just wanted her
gone. She asks that after you experience her unique brand of wit
and humor, to please be sure to let her know which way you think they
meant it. What
