The Eloquent Woman's weekly speaker toolkit

Fans of The Eloquent Woman on Facebook see links to good reads, resources and ideas from other sources there, in addition to posts from the blog. But you won't miss a thing, since I'm summarizing that extra content and putting it here on the blog for all readers to see. Here's what I shared in the week just past:

• Findings: A researcher shares his tips for talking about your research in the style of TED.
• Intentional speaking: This speaker set out to get better, and she shares her tips for both speakers and conferences.
• Story power: Bring your business or brand to life with storytelling.
• Did you miss? Last week on the blog, we shared 7 famous speeches by women about the environment, and told you how to plan presentations when you have lots to say--by saving it for the Q&A.
• About the quote: From Rep. Terri Sewell's speech at the 50th anniversary of the bloody civil rights march in Selma--it's the line that made President Barack Obama laugh. On our Pinterest board of great quotes by eloquent women. Read the Famous Speech Friday post about this wonderful speech.
