Dont Read Thisoneisanobrainer,butsomehow Powerpointmakespeoplethinktheycangetawaywithit.If youdont know your speech without cues, that doesnt just make you more distracting.Itshowsyoudont really understand your message, a huge blow to any confidence the audience has in you.

5. ProjectYourVoiceNothingisworseforaspeakerthan youcant hear. Even in the high-tech world of microphones and amplifiers, you needtobeheard.Projectingyourvoicedoesnt mean yelling, rather standing up straight and letting your voice resonate on the air in your lungs rather than in the throat to produce a clearer sound. Referslokamvaachaathristhaanavyanjanasthayaa:4333 5. BeEntertaining Speeches should be entertaining and informative. Im not saying you should act like a dancing monkey while giving a serious presentation. But unlike an e-mail or article, people expect some appeal to there emotions. Simply reciting dryfactswithoutanypassionorhumorwillmakepeopleless likelytopayattention. 6. SlowDown Nervous and inexperienced speakers tend to talk way to fast. Consciously slow your speech down and add pauses for emphasis. 7. EyeContact Match eye contact witheveryoneintheroom.Ive also heard from sales people that you shouldnt focus all your attention on the decision maker since secretaries and assistants in the room may hold persuasive sway over their boss. 8. 15WordSummary Can you summarize your ideain15words?Ifnot, rewriteitandtryagain.Speakingisaninefficientmedium forcommunicatinginformation,soknowwhattheimportant 15wordsare,sotheycanberepeated. 9. SpeechesareAboutStories If your presentation is going to be a longer one, explain your points through short stories, quips and anecdotes. Great speakers know how to use a story to create an emotional connection between ideas for the audience. 10. Dont Plan Gestures Anygesturesyouuseneedtobean extensionofyourmessageandanyemotionsthatmessage conveys.Plannedgestureslookfalsebecausetheydont match your other involuntary body cues.

BreatheInNotOut Feeling the urge to use presentation killers like um, ah, or you know? Replace those with a pause taking a short breath in. The pause may seem a bit awkward, but the audience will barely notice it. 14. GetPractice Join Toastmasters and practice your speaking skills regularly in front of an audience. Not only is it a fun time, but it will make you more competent and confident when you need to approach the podium. 15. Dont Apologize Apologies are only useful if youve done something wrong. Dont use them to excuse incompetence or humble yourself in front of an audience. Dont apologize for your nervousness or a lack of preparation time. Most audience members cant detect your anxiety,sodont draw attention to it. Do ApologizeifYoure Wrong One caveat to the above rule is that you should apologize if you are late or pointed out / shown to be incorrect. You want to seem confident, but dont be a jerk about it. 16.
