Barks will appear on the panel “Building Your Bully Pulpit: A Platform from which to Peddle Your Wares.” He is the author of The Truth About Public Speaking: The Three Keys to Great Presentations.
Specifics are as follows:
- Date: Saturday, June 13, 2009
- Time: 2:30 to 3:45 p.m.
- Place: Cafritz Conference Center at George Washington University; 800 21st Street, NW; Washington, D.C. (the Cafritz Conference Center is located on the third floor of the Marvin Center. The main entrance of the Marvin Center is located on 21st Street between H and I Streets)
Conference registration is available online at www.americanindependentwriters.org.
Ed Barks works with corporate and association executives who need a magnetic message and sharp communications skills, and with public affairs and public relations experts who counsel their bosses and clients. As President of Barks Communications, the former radio broadcaster has taught more than 3000 business leaders, association executives, government officials, athletes, entertainers, non-profit executives, and public relations staff how to succeed when they deal with the media, deliver presentations, and testify before government officials.
