Act of Communication™ Katherine James, Alan Blumenfeld and Andrew Caple-Shaw are back at the Boardwalk Seminar.
They have come armed with what for over four decades is recognized nationally as the best communication skills program for attorneys in the country.
This time, they turn their attention to the communication challenges that attorneys face in two arenas: The Courtroom and The Board Room. What are the differences between the communication challenges in presenting to a judge and jury versus a civic group or other public speaking opportunity? What are the similarities? How can you, as an attorney, excel in both? As with all Act of Communication™ Workshops, each unit of learning consists of fully participatory exercises.
