Efficient. Targeted. In this grad student workshop with Dr. Gretchen Busl, we'll walk you through tips and tricks for turning a lengthy, winding public talk or presentation into something dynamic, pointed, and much shorter.</p>

<p>In this workshop, you'll learn how to decide what the most important pieces of a talk or presentation are, remove any distracting or unhelpful details, fill in verbal gaps with body language, and keeping things flexible so you don't go off track.</p>

<p>This workshop is online only. Registration is required. This workshop will be recorded for registrants, but we strongly encourage folks to attend synchronously to get a chance to ask questions and workshop their own stuff with support from Dr. Busl.</p>
