5 actionable steps that will make you a great public speaker
Everyone can be a great public speaker (including you).
5 simple techniques to set you apart from the competition, speak stress free, and win over your audience.
I used to have a fear of public speaking.
Using these techniques I overcame the fear and now teach others how to speak stress free.
Lets begin…
— -
1. Slow down.
Most people rush their presentation, speak fast, and use filler words.
Slow down, gather time to think, and get comfortable pausing.
Slowing down makes you a more thoughtful speaker.
It shows you are present to the audience.
It reduces filler words.
2. Be different.
Use the structure: Open, body, close.
They should be different, not different versions of the same content.
Don’t open with a 10 minute agenda, go through the agenda, and then tell the audience what you just told them.
Keep people engaged. Be different.
3. Use the senses.
Always relate it back to something the audience can resonate with.
- ‘Like the heat of the sun.’
- ‘Like the smell of cinnamon.’
