You're Going to Want to Write THESE Down! | 'No Sweat' Public ...

Fortunately, I?ve been doing a lot of speaking lately.

During the Q&A Session, one question I?m frequently asked is, ?How can I lessen my Fear of Public Speaking and become a better Presenter?

There are a number of answers to this question, and I think a blog post, categorizing them, is appropriate. ?Here it is!

Lessen the Fear of Public Speaking

• Know your material.
• If you don?t have a great knowledge about what you?re presenting, you should?have fear!
• Use Google Alerts to keep updated on the latest information for the subject you?ll be speaking about.
• Structure your presentation properly.
• A delicious cake is the result of a great recipe, that has:?specific?ingredients, in specific amounts, added at specific?times, in a specific manner.
• Professional presentations also follow a ?Recipe.?
• The?Title should draw people in to see and hear you.
• Think of it as the:
• Headline of a newspaper article.
• Subject Line of an email.
• Spine of a book.
• If the above don?t grab attention and interest, people won?t want to know more.
• Write your own Introduction.
• It is not your biography.
• It should answer the questions:
• Why this subject?
• Why this speaker?
• Why now?
• Think of the Introduction as the King?s Trumpeters announcing his arrival! ?It should build the audience?s anticipation for you, the speaker!
• Open your speech with something that Grabs the Attention of the people you?re speaking to.
• Next, Tell them What you?ll be Telling Them, and how you?ll be handling questions.
• The formula for the Body of the presentation is:
• Make a Point ? Tell a Story to support that point.
• Three to five points per presentation.
• Personal stories are best!
• The Conclusion has two parts.

1. Tell the audience what you told them.
2. Have a Strong Closing.

• The last thing the audience sees and hears will be the first thing they will remember.

Arrive early to your event to Meet & Greet?your audience.

• It is amazing how much easier it is to talk to people you?ve met, if even for a moment. ?It is a great anxiety reducer!

Question & Answer Session

• Take questions?before?your Closing.
• State that in your Opening when you give the audience a ?road map? of how you?ll be proceeding.
• The?Closing?is the?Closing?- Period.
• Taking questions throughout a presentation, unless it is a workshop, is extremely hard to do and not wise for a number of reasons.

Practice! ? Practice! ? Practice!

• Practice in front of a mirror.
• Practice out loud.
• Practice with a video recorder and watch?yourself!
• Practice with friends and family as an audience and ask for constructive feedback.
• Malcomb Gladwell, in his best selling book, ?Outliers?, says it takes 10,000 hours to become a Expert.
• He also says,??Practice isn?t the thing you do once you?re good.
  It?s the thing you do that makes you good.?
• Athletic?Coaches tell us, ?We?ll play as we practice.? ?They are correct!

Speak! ? Speak! ? Speak!

• If you want to be a great baker ? Bake!
• If you want to be a great swimmer ? Swim!
• If you want to be a great speaker ? Speak!
• The Learning is in the Doing!

Follow these suggestions?and?your next presentation will be
-?No Sweat!
