What is best for career success: public speaking or acting skills?
Asked by Conversation
I will have time to take one Community Education class next term. Both meet for four sessions and last 2 hours each time. One is a class in Public Speaking and the other is an Acting Class. They say that all of life is a play and most business executives are playing a role to gain respect and credibility. On the other hand good communication skills from a public speaking class would be helpful? Your choice? Have you taken either?

Best Answer:
Public speaking. You need to learn to organize information and deliver it to an audience as well as think on your feet. Acting is primarily memorizing lines and hitting marks with limited improvisation.

Take the Public Speaking class. This is something that will help you with any career. Good luck to you :)
