“The art of communication is the language of leadership.”

– James Humes

Communication skills have never been more important. Especially in the workplace (with everyday interactions between coworkers, bosses, and clients), public speaking is a vital skill to have and hone. SPCH 100 – Public Communication focuses on the content, organization, and the delivery of ideas to sharpen your performance and convey your message in a more effective and confident manner.

“Communication – the human connection – is the key to personal and career success.”

– Paul J. Meyer
