What is best for career success: public speaking or acting skills?
Conversation asked:
I will have time to take a training class of the term the following year. Both meetings each time for four sessions that last 2 hours. One is a class in public speaking and the other is a class replacement. They say that all life is a game and most businessmen are playing a role to earn the respect and credibility. On the one hand, good communication skills by a public speaking class would be helpful? Your choice? You have taken one or the other?

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.
