PUBLIC SPEAKING AND EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION

Without effective communication, your audience will not follow along with your message

THE ART OF PUBLIC SPEAKING

Mastering the art of compelling communication is the paramount skill that can propel you towards success in today's fiercely competitive global environment. This program equips you with the tools to convey your ideas effectively through stories, videos, and real-world case examples. It presents a practical, step-by-step approach that anyone can embrace to craft and deliver presentations that captivate, persuade, and leave a lasting impression. According to IDC, (www.idc.com) “oral and written communication” is, by far, the number one skill employers look for in “high-opportunity occupations.” Yet, very few of the 350 PowerPoint presentations that are given every second around the world are clear, compelling and inspiring. Public speaking through presentations will raise your value in the workplace by 50 percent, according to Warren Buffett.

SOME TIPS FOR PUBLIC SPEAKING:

Tailor Your Message: Understanding your audience is key to a comfortable presentation. Assess their familiarity with your topic to strike the right tone, whether it's professional or casual. Adding humor can also ease tension and enhance engagement.

Infuse Your Personality: Bring your unique personality into your presentation. Be authentic, whether naturally funny or empathetic. Use humor judiciously, ensuring it complements rather than distracts from your message.

Seek Feedback: Whether practicing or presenting, welcome constructive criticism. Specific examples from feedback can guide improvements for future presentations.

Weave in Personal Stories: Enhance your presentation with personal anecdotes. Much like TED Talk speakers, sharing personal experiences helps establish a connection, convey passion, and showcase expertise.

Establish Eye Contact: Making eye contact with your audience fosters a sense of connection and allows you to gauge comprehension. Practicing beforehand can boost your comfort level and confidence.

Utilize the Stage: Familiarize yourself with the presentation space, equipment, and room setup. Own the stage by moving around and making eye contact. Be mindful of body language to keep the audience engaged.

TED Talks: The Official TED Guide to Public Speaking

Since taking over TED in 2001, Chris Anderson has shown how carefully crafted talks can be the key to unlocking empathy, spreading knowledge, and promoting a shared dream. Done right, a talk can electrify a room and transform an audience’s worldview; it can be more powerful than anything in written form.
