Jennifer was on a mission. She was passionate about the message she planned to deliver when she made her
graduation speech. However, she didn't know that her speech would be live-streamed on social media.
Later that evening, after delivering her speech, Jennifer logged on to her social media account. She saw that her
speech had been shared and viewed by over 3,000 people. Reading the encouraging comments that had been
posted, and realizing how many people — people she didn’t know — had acknowledged her call to action, made
her feel great.
This experience shows how Jennifer benefited from (A) Networking through public speaking.

Janet was unhappy about how her presentation to the 8th graders of Jefferson Junior High had gone. She knew
beforehand that it would be uncomfortable for her to talk about sex education, but she didn’t expect half of the
boys in the audience to giggle continuously while she showed slides on the female reproductive system. She
decided to make some adjustments to her presentation before speaking at St. Xavier next week.
