Many presenters unintentionally shift the focus to themselves by saying things like, “I am going to speak about … ” or, “I am going to share with you … ” or, “I am going to show you how …." This shifts the attention to the speaker. #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtips

LeBron is speaking about basketball, but his point applies just as well to speaking. Many of my clients express a desire to overcome the anxiety or adrenaline rush they experience. I advise they embrace these as a source of positive energy rather than attempting to conquer them.

Slides are not the presentation itself; they serve to reinforce the message you're conveying while they are being displayed. #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtips #publicspeakingtraining #thecaptivatingpublicspeaker

To truly grasp your concepts and materials, transition to using fewer, more concise bullet points rather than simply memorizing them. #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtips #publicspeakingtraining #thecaptivatingpublicspeaker

Simple and easy-to-implement engagement techniques include suggesting your audience "right this down," and "think about this.". #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtips #publicspeakingtraining #thecaptivatingpublicspeaker

Unless something happens in the moments leading up to your talk that provides a reason to do so, resist the temptation to deviate from your planned opening. #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtips #publicspeakingtraining #thecaptivatingpublicspeaker

This is like saying to become an Olympian skier is all you have to do is ski a lot. A study at McGill University in Canada also refutes this myth. #publicspeakingbook #publicspeakingtips #thecaptivatingpublicspeaker #publicspeakingmyths

This can be compared to Michelangelo methodically sculpting a block of marble until he revealed his brilliant masterpiece, "David.". #publicspeakingquotes #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtraining #thecaptivatingpublicspeaker

When your words and tone are not in alignment, your audience receives two messages. This inconsistency leads to misunderstanding and lack of engagement. #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtips #publicspeakingtraining #thecaptivatingpublicspeaker

Throughout history, many notable figures such as Buffett, Jobs, Gates, Churchill, Lincoln, and Aristotle have expressed similar ideas. Perhaps it's true. #publicspeakingquotes #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtraining #thecaptivatingpublicspeaker

In most instances, pausing after presenting a slide allows your audience to carefully examine the content, grasp its relevance to your point, and then refocus on your presentation without missing information. #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtips #publicspeakingtraining

Unless you are an author conducting a book reading, your audience is not there to be read to. Learn your presentation and engage in a dialogue with your audience. #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtips #publicspeakingtraining #thecaptivatingpublicspeaker

A speaking buddy is a fellow presenter seeking similar insights. You can share your presentations with each other to receive feedback on potential areas for improvement. This exchange allows for constructive criticism and valuable input to enhance your speaking skills.

While this may seem obvious, many speakers tend to focus solely on delivering necessary information. However, simply providing what is needed may be informative, but it often lacks engagement. #publicspeakingbooks #publicspeakingtips #publicspeakingtraining
