The industry has changed a lot since the time when designing used to be just a bunch of papers and figures. The design presentation has evolved into a professional practice with a scope to make an impact on the business decisions of the clients. Public speaking is one of the most important skills that you can develop. Not only it is an opportunity to showcase your talents, but it can also be a lucrative career option. A public speaking career can be a very rewarding experience. It can give you the opportunity to share your knowledge and views with others, and it can make you a public figure. If you’re considering a career in design, make sure you know the importance of preparing for a speech at presentation of your designs.

It also enables you to become an authority in your industry, which in turn increases the demand for your services and products. All of this leads to proper closure of design projects.” – said respected Dean Dr Vibha Kapoor during the session.
