SPEAKING IN PUBLIC

SPEAKING IN PUBLIC

1. DISCOVER THE SPEAKER IN YOU

   • GET TO KNOW YOURSELF AND RECOGNIZE YOUR SKILLS

2. DEFINE THE OBJECTIVE OF YOUR SPEECH

   • WHO?
     • WHO ARE YOU GOING TO SPEAK TO?
       • WHAT IS THE SIZE OF THE AUDIENCE?
       • HOW FAMILIAR IS THE AUDIENCE WITH THE TOPIC I'M GONNA TALK ABOUT?
     • HOW?
       • HOW WILL THE PRESENTATION BE MADE?
         • FACE TO FACE?
         • ONLINE?
         • WILL I NEED A MICROPHONE?
       • WHEN?
         • WHEN DO I HAVE TO GIVE THIS PRESENTATION?
           • HOW LONG IS THE SPEECH GONNA BE?
         • WHAT?
           • WHAT AM I GOING TO TALK ABOUT?
             • STRUCTURE YOUR SPEECH
           • WHY?
             • WHY AM I GOING TO SPEAK IN PUBLIC?
               • WHAT MAKES ME THE IDEAL PERSON FOR THE JOB?

3. MASTER YOUR BODY LANGUAGE

   • LOOK CONFIDENT IN YOURSELF
   • BE WELL-CENTERED
   • FIND A POSITION THAT MAKES YOU AND THE AUDIENCE COMFORTABLE

4. ELIMINATE VERBAL TICS

   • RECORD YOURSELF
   • PREPARE YOUR SPEECH
   • IF YOU FIND YOURSELF IN A POSITION WHERE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO SAY OR FORGOT THE LINES, MAKE A SMALL PAUSE
