No, but thats a real technique to fight performance anxiety. I think of every presentation as a conversation rather than a performance, and that helps me from getting the head sweats.

I only picture certain audiences in their underwear. I have mild stage freight, so I can't use note cards because I shake a lot....but I love public speaking. Is that weird?

Anyway, I think incorporating Taoism into a structured course is pretty cool. It is more interesting than boring "Leadership 101."

Michael Scott?

KG, you probably like it the same way some people like jumping outta planes? I get nervous doing public speaking as well. In a way, i like the challenge of addressing my nervousness, so I don't mind profs assigning a presentation task....i think i'm getting better at it.
