Women EmPower AECT 2016 Q3: Discover your VOICE!
Date and time
Description
PLEASE JOIN US as we deepen our communication skills by truly DISCOVERING YOUR VOICE!
This quarter, we will explore the power of communication. We all hear a lot about authenticity these days and as women we are often pulled between accusations of too assertive or too meek, too high-pitched or not loud enough. George Bernard Shaw once wrote that "the single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place." Our workshop will explore simple exercises from vocal training, public speaking workshops, and yoga teacher training to explore how to vary breath, intonation, verbal cues and other modalities to optimize communication. And the best part - the exercises are designed to help you receive instant feedback. Come prepared to have some fun, laugh, and as always share over food and drink. We can't wait to HEAR you!
ABOUT WOMEN EMPOWER AECT:
In 2013, a group of inspired women in the Bay Area sustainable construction industry joined forces to launch the Women Empower community. Our intention is to co-create an open, safe and fun event where like-minded women in the AECT (Architecture, Engineering, Construction, Technology) industry can come together.
At Women Empower, we are free to let down our guard, share our stories and connect on a deeper level with like-minded women who share our passions and face similar challenges. We come together as not only as colleagues but as friends, to empower one another in integrating our unique personal experience with our collective professional purpose.
