This past week Boston Toastmasters in collaboration with SLA@Simmons hosted an interactive public speaking workshop for current SLIS students. Students participated in mock interviews, both giving and receiving feedback to one another. Participants also practiced networking with confidence, brainstorming conversation openers and giving 30 second elevator pitches.
If you were unable to attend, Ally Dunn, current President of Boston Toastmasters recommended the book "The Introvert Advantage"
