A little outside the comfort zone today!

Our Northwest Illinois CEO students had their first opportunity to practice public speaking in front of the class, sharing for 2–3 minutes about what their ideal Labor Day weekend would look like.

There were some nerves and a little apprehension, but every student stepped up and did a great job.

The goal isn’t to be a perfect public speaker—it’s to gain confidence, learn from the experience, and get a little better each time.

Proud of this group for taking that first step!
