Life Is A Stage, Even At Work

Online, May 22, 2012 (Newswire.com) - (Note: Due to circumstances, the fabulous Gert Garman, who focuses on keeping professional lives fresh, cannot speak on creativity/innovation in the workplace at the next FemCity Orlando Connections event.)

Marion Marsh Skinner, a long-time performer in the Orlando area, will be the guest speaker at the next FemCity Orlando connections event, Wednesday, May 23, 2012, at 6 p.m. The evening will be hosted by Healing Alternatives, an integrative wellness center located at 125 West Pineview St., Suite 1009, in Altamonte Springs.

Have you ever been caught off guard at work? Do you want to be able to think on your feet a little bit better? Do you ever get stage fright before a big presentation or meeting? Skinner will address some of these issues from an actor's perspective. She will provide tips and techniques on how to combat and/or prepare for these instances.

"We are improvising every day," she says. "We might as well look good while we do it!"

The event is complimentary for Femfessional members; $10 for non-members. Please pre-register online at femfessionals.com (select Orlando as a city and then click on Calendar + Events), or email [email protected] if you plan on attending. All proceeds benefit the Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America. Wine will be provided by Don Sebastiani & Sons, and Kingfish Bistro will be catering appetizers.
