As an introvert, do you shy away from public speaking in the belief that only those who are more extraverted will excel at this task? Well, believe it or not, not all extraverts feel confident about having to speak in public either. But, for you introverted listeners, do know that it does not have to be seen as a daunting task, and if you are currently in a leadership role, there are ways you can move from outside of your comfort zone and into the realm of public speaking comfortably and with self-confidence.

In this episode, Francesca McDowell, who overcame a childhood stutter and is now a Leadership and Public Speaking Coach, shares her story and provides insights on self-awareness and the importance of developing public speaking as a skill, as well as a few tips on how to best prepare and manage for presentations.
