Inside Look: Client event with Bill McGowan

On April 3, we hosted Emmy award-winning correspondent and CEO of Clarity Media Group Bill McGowan for a client event we co-hosted with our West Coast partner, Kim Ricketts Book Events.

Bill's new book, released just this week by HarperBusiness, is called Pitch Perfect: How to Say it Right the First Time, Every Time. At the event, Bill gave us some useful tips on public speaking. Ever notice how, when you're in front of an audience, you suddenly don't know where to put your arms? The trick is to hold them in front of your chest. Ever wonder how to keep your voice from quavering? Try yoga-style breathing.

It was an interesting experience watching a public speaker speaking about public speaking (got that?) and Bill's confidence gave me confidence in his tips for building confidence (got that too?).
