Faith In Brooklyn for March 15
Workshop’s Goal Is Empowering Women to Confidently Articulate Their Viewpoints
Career coach and motivational speaker Vickie Austin comes to First Unitarian Church next weekend to encourage people to “Stand Up, Speak Out” when presenting their ideas in the workplace.
The First Unitarian Congregational Society of Brooklyn’s Women’s Leadership Alliance and the Young Adult Ministry co-sponsor this free Women’s Forum with the slogan “Stand Up, Speak Out,” on Saturday, March 18. Ms. Austin will facilitate the workshop, which will cover several strategies: gaining confidence in presenting ideas, learn skills to support activism, clarifying the positions on issues on which one is passionate.
“Stand Up, Speak Out!” is an interactive, intergenerational workshop with the goals of training women how to develop and leverage the power of one’s voice to make an effective impact on these issues. Ms. Austin believes that “Women of all ages need to feel confident in their ability to present themselves effectively while representing their interests in a way that can be heard.”
