Our Council has the opportunity to offer a program, at no cost, on June 15th with Laura Sicola, PhD.

With on-camera communications being the new norm in both life and industry, professionals and others can no longer afford to remain behind the curve.  Whether for client meetings, firm meetings, interviews, business development or perhaps one day in lieu of our courts-the best professionals in the Era of COVID-19 will be those willing to adapt and able to embrace change on camera.

Ultimately, her mission is to help people confidently and authentically master the 3Cs of “Vocal Executive Presence”:
