Elocution, Public Speaking and Effective Communication
The power of good communication can never be over emphasized, both in and out of the work place. No matter how great your ideas are or your business plan, if you can not effectively communicate them, then no one will listen to you, and they just die within. And that's why AGSTribe is bringing this super webinar session, the first in our October series on Personal Branding and Development. Join us and Aderinsola Adeyemi @derinadeyemi, a broadcaster, storyteller and diction instructor who will educate us on Elocution, Public speaking and all aspects of Effective Communication. Date: Oct 8, 2020 Time: 8 pm WAT. AGS LIGHTBOX is a weekly capacity building webinar open to only AGS Tribe Community members. Learn more
