Nicely done. Although I've never worked in academia, I imagine the line you must tow in adhering to the administration's dictates and standing up for your principles resembles the structure of the corporate world. If you stand too rigidly you alienate those in power and is you fall too easily to their whims you lose the respect of peers (fellow professors) and subordinates (students). Just as in politics, the middle usually proves the most stable ground.
I'm a South Florida speech coach and professor who helps people find their inner voice. Throughout my 20-year career, I have given hundreds of clients and students the training and tools needed to deliver effective presentations to audiences large and small. I'm also adept at video production and have directed and produced two nationally distributed educational videos.
My speech communication specialties include media and presentation training, on-camera delivery, conquering stage fright, interviewing and conflict resolution. My video expertise includes shooting, editing and script writing.
