A privilege once again to gain a glimpse into the future with some of our local youth in a workshop on public speaking. There was little time available to perform miracles - but it was pure magic when they stepped outside of their comfort zone, used their imagination and accepted the challenges we threw at them.
Leanne and I enjoyed encouraging them to take simple steps towards overcoming their fears - which finally led to using persuasive language in order to be accepted for the ... job, TV role, Uni, sports team, etc.
Well done to all the students - hope we convinced them that if they gain the skills and confidence as a speaker - they will not only change their own lives - they will also have a greater impact on others.
Congratulations Ipswich on the great venue - Studio 188 in Brisbane Street
Congratulations Ipswich City Council on providing such a program to develop our youth
Congratulations Bremer Forum members - for investing time and experience for benefit of the youth of our City
