Powerful Public Speaking

Presented By: Betsy Cunningham

Manager, Community and Public Relations, Y-12 Federal Credit Union


Networking and lunch: 11:30am

Program: 12:00pm - 1:00pm


Glossophobia is the medical term for the strong fear of public speaking and according to several surveys, the fear of public speaking is even greater than the fear of death. You likely do not fear public speaking more than death, but you may have a few “butterflies” before speaking in public. Being a little nervous is normal and by learning the keys to public speaking, nonverbal techniques, and practice, you can become a powerful public speaker.


Betsy Cunningham has been a Dale Carnegie Instructor for the last 25 years and has facilitated many classes focusing on Communication and Human Relations Skills. She is certified to facilitate the High Impact Presentation Program which trains presenters and speakers to become more powerful and persuasive in their delivery to achieve impactful results.


Please join Betsy as she shares her knowledge and experience about Powerful Public Speaking:

  • Discover the 10 keys to be successful in public speaking
  • Learn the importance of Nonverbal Communication techniques
  • Become more effective at challenging others to take action
