In her new capacity as president of the Communication Action Team, Joslyn has gathered a number of students who are willing to take the major leap of speaking in front of a friendly group. We hope this will be the first of many student programs.
Some of these speakers will have taken a Communication course. Others are presenting their talk as a personal challenge. All of these speakers are speaking about a topic that is important to them
Public speaking is an important skill to practice as often as possible. And now Joslyn has provided a brand-new option for Touro students to polish these skills.
Cheer these students as they practice an important leadership skill! Bring a friend!

LAST Week
3. . The Touro Communication Club #175
Tuesday, November 27, 2012 – 2:00 – 4:00 pm Room 316 – Midtown
“Leadership”
During the recent Presidential campaign, the topic of “Leadership” was thrown about by both sides. “My opponent showed no leadership etc.” Charges were made. Were they true? Was it a horse of a different color?
`
The American Dream tells us that we can be anything we want. What does that mean? Becoming a Leader? Is that an empty promise?
Or have we bought an illusion, a mirage?
Supposedly our college education prepares us for leadership. Does it? Does having a title or a degree automatically make us a leader? Maybe “Followership” is better than “Leadership.”
During this conversation, we will try to define “Leadership.” Is leadership a positive concept? Should we aspire to leading?
Why would we want to be leaders? More money? Prestige? Being famous? Being on TV? Making a difference? And so many more issues.
Put on your thinking cap and turn the mirror on yourself as we ask “What is Leadership?”
After the election, this conversation should be really interesting! Bring your friends!!
