PLEASE STAND UP!
summary
Claim: developers who build soft skills boost pay and public-speaking ability become harder to replace and earn more. Practical route: start with small steps — say hello, ask questions, join groups, then use Toastmasters and local meetups to rehearse. Built a public-facing page and ran events that attract almost 200 people within hours, proving the approach works to turn nervous coders into repeat presenters and to improve client and team communication.
