Even the most introverted court reporter must perfect the art of public speaking. We've all noticed that 21st Century attorneys, judges, and even litigants have some different ideas about decorum, courtesy, and the responsibilities of the court reporter. So, it has never been more important to be able to command a room while on the job and to be prepared to advocate for yourself and the profession on the spot. Participants will leave this session with solutions they can use to immediately improve their written and verbal communication skills on and off the job.
