How to Be on the Same Wavelength as Your Audience
Whether you're arguing an appeal at the Supreme Court, presenting research results to a group of peers or teaching air conditioning to community college students, it's critical to find exactly the correct level and tone.

This module deals with how to sound out the right tone and level of language and how to deliver successfully in that language while still retaining all of your integrity and authenticity.
